hohei Otani's latest off-field headline has nothing to do with his impressive home run last night. A Hawaii real estate investor and broker are suing the Los Angeles two-way superstar for over $240 million, alleging tortious interference and unjust enrichment. The lawsuit claims that Otani and his agent pushed them out of a luxury housing development project in which Otani was invested and had agreed to be the spokesperson.

    The development, valued at $17 million, is part of a larger $240 million complex on Hawaii's Hapuna coast. According to the lawsuit, Otani and his agent made concessions that ultimately led to the broker and investor being fired from the project. This isn't the first time Otani has been involved in a high-stakes lawsuit; just last year, he was embroiled in a scandal with his interpreter, who allegedly took $16 million of Otani's money and gambled it away.

    It raises questions about whether Otani is simply unlucky or if he's making poor business decisions. With two major scandals in less than a year, the timing doesn't look great for the Dodgers star. However, the team remains at the top of their division, so it's unlikely to impact his on-field performance.
