After Ohtani joined the Dodgers, local media reportedly asked many questions related to Ohtani. According to Bollinger, GM Minassian said, “I just don’t talk about negotiations. I’ve said that since day one (as GM). There’s no benefit to it.”
 
According to Nez Valero, Otani’s agent, there was a possibility that he would re-sign with the Angels until the last minute, but negotiations failed to progress in the final stages. Valero revealed the behind-the-scenes details of the bidding war, saying, “I spoke with (GM Minasian) towards the end.In the end, we decided it wasn’t going to work out, so we decided to sign with the Dodgers.”
