MLB insider Bob Nightengale is a notorious jinx, so if he's certain that Roki Sasaki will wind up choosing the Los Angeles Dodgers, odds are good he'll wind up anywhere else.

Unlike other high profile Japanese players, Sasaki will take less money by signing a minor league contract at age 23, betting on himself in hopes of a huge payday later.
