Roki Sasaki continues to be the belle of the free agency ball -- with the Dodgers and Padres looking to improve their chances of getting him.

The Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres are hot on the tail of Roki Sasaki, the most exciting international prospect on the market. But only one of them can snag him.

The San Diego Padres and the reigning MLB champions, the Los Angeles Dodgers, are two of the favorites and finalists for the coveted signature of Japanese ace Roki Sasaki, who has been given the green light to sign with any Major League team that can woo him during this offseason.

The Roki Sasaki sweepstakes is reportedly down to three teams, with the Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego Padres and Toronto Blues Jays believed to be the finalists. There might be a very specific reason why he has narrowed his choices down to those three teams.

The Los Angeles Dodgers got a second and final meeting with Roki Sasaki, and the team reportedly made sure the righty knew just how loaded a roster he'd be joining if he chose L.A. over the San Diego Padres.

It seems like Roki Sasaki's potential signing with the Dodgers isn't good news for everyone, as it might be messing with other prospects' plans.
