As Rams vs Saints Host Shohei Ohtani and Eduardo Camavinga, Yoshinobu Yamamoto Unlikely to Join SoFi Stadium’s Glitz

The Los Angeles Rams are going against the New Orleans Saints, and the game couldn’t have been more exciting. Though the Rams are in the driver’s seat, the stakes just became higher for the team as the presence of the MLB star Shohei Ohtani and the Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga graced them. However, one more man was supposed to show up but didn’t.

Ohtani signed one of the biggest deals in the sports history with the LA Dodgers. Another baseball star, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, was making waves in the MLB and was supposed to be at the SoFi stadium. However, some sources have negated his presence in the stadium, and he might have his reasons behind this.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Shohei Ohtani rumors turn out to be partly false

Recently, we saw a snippet of Shohei Ohtani visiting the SoFi Stadium in the wake of the LA Rams vs. New Orleans Saints game. We can still see glimpses of him enjoying the game. This came after Ohtani signed a $700 million deal with the LA Dodgers. In addition, Eduardo Camavinga is also suspected of being at the stadium, but there are no glimpses of him. A tweet from “The Athletic” reporter gives more insight into the situation.

However, this lore would not be complete without talking about Yamamoto, who recently became a free agent. The whole MLB is after him to get him to join their respective teams. Apparently, the Yankees, the Dodgers, the Red Sox, and the Mets, among others, are heavily pursuing Yamamoto. Jared Cabbis also pointed out the obvious in his tweet.

Rumors were that Yamamoto was to sign with the Dodgers, but that didn’t come to fruition. Per the “NY Post,” the Rams expected Yamamoto to show up, but he didn’t. Also, Yankees’ manager Aaron Boone was invested in Yamamoto and gave him a No. 18 jersey to keep.

An X account named “Talkin’ Baseball” took a subtle jab at the situation, saying that Yamamoto and Ohtani might throw some balls for the Rams tonight.

The Rams are executing great gameplay and leading the Saints in the game.
