He's a huge star wherever he is.
In LA you have people who go to LA just to spot these people and hunt for the celebrities...especially Japanese tourists and tourists from other parts of Asia. No chance he could just go walk down the street in LA, even in the fancier areas.
And really here's the thing he's spent what the last 6 years in LA and maybe he is just ready for something different.
The contract is going to have player opt out options for sure, he can go to Toronto for a couple years, if he doesn't like it he can opt out and go to the Dodgers then.
