The payments Ippei Mizuhara sent from Shohei Ohtani’s bank account to a bookmaking operation were forwarded to casinos, where the money was deposited in gambling accounts, converted to chips and cashed out to pay the bookie, multiple sources told ESPN.
Mike Trout can’t catch a break.
Unquestionably one of the best players of his generation, and one of the best in baseball history, Trout’s spent most of the past few years battling injuries. But entering 2024, he repeatedly professed his health and positive outlook for the upcoming season. Even after the Los Angeles Angels lost all-world superstar Shohei Ohtani to the Dodgers.
And through the first month of the season, Trout looked the part. Shaking off some poor luck on batted balls, Trout jumped out to an early lead in the American League home run race with 10.
The Golden State Warriors didn’t get a crack at the NBA Playoffs after falling to the Sacramento Kings a couple of weeks back, but Draymond Green is getting a chance to turn the tables on the Phoenix Suns, Jusuf Nurkic.
Phoenix fell to the Minnesota Timberwolves in 5 games and Green — not one to shy away from confrontation — took the opportunity to take a swipe at Nurkic, with whom he has a bit of a history.
The Los Angeles Angels are set to be without Mike Trout for an extended period of time after the superstar outfielder was diagnosed with a torn meniscus on Tuesday.
Trout will undergo knee surgery to repair the meniscus tear in the near future, and the team is optimistic that he’ll be able to return later in the season.
Trout was emotional and fought back tears while opening up about his disappointment over the latest injury setback on Tuesday, while also explaining how he came to discover the issue to begin with.
Detroit Tigers right-handed pitcher Jack Flaherty had an afternoon to remember Tuesday against his former team at Comerica Park.
Flaherty whiffed the St. Louis Cardinals‘ first seven batters to start the game, tying an American League record shared by four pitchers. He came up two strikeouts short of the MLB record, set in 2021 by Pablo López when the then-Miami Marlins right-hander fanned the first nine Atlanta Braves batters he faced.
Before leaving the NBA, LeBron James’ final wish is to play pro ball with his son, Bronny James.
Because of this, the Los Angeles Lakers have their priorities in all the wrong places, coming off a humiliating series against the Denver Nuggets, which happened to be the case last postseason as well.
Yet here they are, still unwilling to make roster improvements just to keep LeBron happy …
According to a report by The Athletic, Lakers brass have expressed interest in drafting Bronny James, a move that reeks of L.A.’s desperation to keep LeBron James committed to the team.
Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has many decisions to make regarding his future with his current franchise, but according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, teaming up with his eldest son Bronny in the NBA is no longer a priority for the 39-year-old.
During an appearance on NBA Today, Wojnarowski reported on James’s plans for the offseason, including the opt-out in the forward’s current Lakers’ contract which has a deadline of June 29.
Mike Trout needs surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee and will be out indefinitely. Though the injury isn’t expected to be season-ending, his absence will derail what had been a hot start for the 32-year-old Los Angeles Angels star.
ESPN’s Alden Gonzalez and Jeff Passan first reported Trout’s impending surgery, which was later confirmed by Angels general manager Perry Minasian, per The Athletic’s Sam Blum. It’s a huge blow to the Angels as they attempt to build something in their post-Shohei Ohtani era.
Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis is expected to miss a minimum of several games with a right soleus strain suffered in Game 4, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
