Dodgers Navigate Ohtani Media Frenzy with Strategic Moves

Jason Heyward nominated as 'unofficial spokesperson' amid increased Japanese media presence, highlighting team's adaptability.

Shohei Ohtani's arrival at the Dodgers has significantly increased media presence, with a notable surge in Japanese reporters.
Manager Dave Roberts has humorously nominated Jason Heyward as the 'unofficial spokesperson' for media inquiries about Ohtani.
Heyward emphasizes that Ohtani is the best person to speak about himself, despite the media's interest.
The Dodgers team and staff have praised Ohtani's work ethic and skill set, making a strong first impression.
The increased media attention is seen as manageable and not a distraction for the team.
