Roki Sasaki’s agent, Joel Wolfe of Wasserman, denied reports that a deal already existed between his client and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
“While a bunch of executives who should know me better and do a lot of business with me insult my integrity by insinuating that I would be a part of some type of nefarious agreement,” Wolfe told The Athletic, “in reality, this is just poor sportsmanship.”
Wolfe’s comments indicate the race to sign the Japanese sensation is only just heating up, but the Dodgers unwillingly find themselves in the middle of sweepstakes drama.
