Because it was a setup the whole time. He was always coming and wanted to make sure they could bring in his Japanese friends too. Plus Cohen decided to crash out for Soto because of how things went down last winter. Imagine having all the money in the world and Shohei look at you like

Don’t think getting the most money was his main factor. Dude left what was it, something like 200 million on the table just to get to the league earlier. Also he makes like 60 million a year just on endorsements.
