Ohtani has never been about money, but he’s made enough for his otherwise beleaguered employer, and it’s time for him to be paid his true value.
“$500M for 13/14 [years]— $250M per position”“11 times 50=$550M. Sounds crazy but he has the ability to consistently be a 9/10 WAR player.”Ohtani’s stardom extends beyond his pitching and batting and into the international sphere.Word is Ohtani will indeed shoot for $500M plus, and who would blame him? He’s one of the best pitchers in baseball, and also one of the best hitters, and as a bonus, might be tied for the fastest guy on his team .
Better yet, Ohtani is more than a player, he’s a phenomenon — maybe the greatest talent and draw ever. He’s that rare player whoany big-market team would want him . It feels like the Dodgers are working to get below some tax thresholds to set themselves up for a huge winter next year, and they’ve seen up close how he have kept their cross-freeway neighbors from completely folding. The Angels should have new owners by then. And of course the Mets, Phillies and Padres are in it only to win games and enhance the fan experience.
The one little caveat is that at least some got the impression the first time he was a free agent five years ago that Ohtani preferred to stay away from the biggest markets. If that still holds true, that could affect the final price. But not too much. I see Ohtani’s soon-to-be record contract beginning with a 5, too.
