My mistake.

I went back and looked at the ESPN timeline, and it says that according to Mizuhara, he was paid around $85K by the Angels in 2021/22, and by then, he had lost over $1M.

By the end of 2022 Mizuhara had lost over $1 million. His debt then ballooned to $4 million by early 2023. He started gambling in 2021, when he first met the bookie.

So, between "the end of 2022", and "early 2023", his debt went from over $1M, to $4M! Remember, this was when he was making around (according to him), $85K per year. This guy was a complete mess!
