Ohtani, a unique two-way star, is expected to command a record contract of $500 million-plus on the free agent market.
“He has a very good poker face,” Roberts said.
The meeting lasted two-to-three hours.
“We want to respect Shohei’s wishes as far as being private,” Roberts said, "but obviously people talk. I don’t think I need to share what we talked about.”
Roberts at first hesitated before giving a few details.
“It's a good possibility,” he said. “Yeah, we met with him. I like to be honest and so we met with Shohei and we talked and I think it went well. I think it went well, but at the end of the day, he's going to do what's best for himself, where he feels most comfortable.”
