Roki Sasaki's signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers in the MLB has drawn attention, with a San Diego Padres star expressing his thoughts on the decision.

In a way, the financial aspect is even rosier than that (from the Dodgers' perspective), as typically with a prospect of this caliber, a team might feel pressure to sign him to an early extension. With Sasaki, there's no such pressure: Any talk of an extension now would be viewed as circumventing the transfer rules. It's almost too good to be true.

In his first year as a Dodger, Sasaki will earn the league minimum of $760,000 after classifying as an international amateur.

Ohtani reportedly played a huge role in the Dodgers' recruitment of Sasaki, the 23-year-old pitching phenom, who posted a 29-15 record and 2.10 ERA in 64 appearances in the Nippon Professional Baseball. Ohtani also recently revealed his message was to Sasaki just before the latter picked the Dodgers.
