This week on the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers got their man, again, signing Roki Sasaki, the pitcher from Japan whom they've coveted for years.

The Dodgers beat out the Blue Jays and Padres for the 23-year-old Sasaki, signing the right-hander for a reported $6.5 million bonus. "It was a very difficult decision, but I will do my best to make it the right decision when I look back after my baseball career," Sasaki wrote in an Instagram post on January 17, announcing his signing with the Dodgers.

Also on Friday, the Dodgers traded two minor league outfielders for international bonus pool space, to help bolster their offer to Sasaki, sending Dylan Campbell to the Phillies and trading Arnaldo Lantigua to the Reds.
