Report now is that Ohtani will read a prepared statement sometime this afternoon and take no questions so seems unlikely there will be many answers to the questions that are still out there about what happened.

Ohtani said he's not a gambler and the money sent to the bookie wasn't because of his betting, he said he doesn't gamble.
If he was tied to gambling but didn't bet on baseball and came clean about it, then things would just go away after a while. He has more to lose by lying than telling the truth (unless he bet on baseball). Things would come back 10x worse if he were caught in a lie. I believe him. Let the season begin!

Not to be a cynic, but one of the reasons I believe Ohtani's version of events is that a guy who is making at least $50 million per year in endorsements and who has a $700 million contract in place (with probably expectations of something north of $500 million even a couple of years ago) isn't going to get into debt for $4.5 million with some dodgy bookie in California.
If he's a closet gambler, I'm sure he would have ways to get his fix from trusted sources in Japan, where he is more likely to have his privacy protected and respected.
