The online buzz on platforms like X and Reddit have intensified, with rumors of a reservation for 50 individuals at a sushi restaurant in close proximity to Rogers Centre.
In an additional twist, X user Clarence Frazer, citing an anonymous source, alleges that Blue Jays pitcher Yusei Kikuchi, also a Japanese player, made a reservation for over 50 guests at an "upscale sushi restaurant near Rogers Centre" on Friday night.

That's not to say it won't ultimately be the Blue Jays; my understanding is that, at this point, that decision has not been made.

Just because there's no final agreement with the #BlueJays now doesn't mean there won't be one. Jays have been pushing all-in for Shohei Ohtani & there's clearly mutual interest. As of this moment, though, there's no final decision made by Ohtani, source told me &

Perhaps the most sought-after player in MLB history, Ohtani is expected to command an offer well over $500 million (U.S.), with some speculating the bidding could reach over $600 million.
Stay tuned for more updates...
