Sports stars – they are just like us.
The baseball world, and indeed the entire sports world, is fascinated by Shohei Ohtani's free agent aspirations.
Let's start with six-time All-Star Joey Votto:
I laughed out loud in a store. The person asked if I was okay.
— Joey Votto (@JoeyVotto) December 9, 2023
Us too, Joey. We know the feeling.
Remember how the two-time MVP celebrated his latest award with the adorable dog with the mysterious name?
Ohtani's new teammate Walker Buehler has a question about the four-legged friend.
I'd like to think it was called Walker, but I guess I'll find out soon.
— Walker Buehler (@buehlersdayoff) December 9, 2023
Gavin Lux woke up to exciting news about the Dodgers' newest star.
I wake up from a nap… And BANGGG!🤣

— Gavin Lux (@TheRealGavinLux) December 9, 2023
Remember retired backup Trevor Hildenberger?
Let's put it this way: The righty hasn't forgotten his only appearance against Ohtani.
Kiké Hernandez is looking for support.
If anyone knows of a company that can pick jaws off the ground please let me know!!! 😱

2022 NL Rookie of the Year Michael Harris II was at a loss for words.
Magic Johnson, part owner of the Dodgers and Los Angeles sports legend, was thrilled with Ohtani's decision to come on board.
A big thank you to Shohei for choosing to wear Dodger blue! I know that all Dodger fans around the world are extremely happy and excited that you have chosen to join our organization and we welcome you to Dodger Nation! @Dodgers
— Earvin Magic Johnson (@MagicJohnson) December 9, 2023
Former NFL star JJ Watt was almost at a loss for words.
And then the Kansas City Chiefs' superstar quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, took over Watt's position.
