    They might have to trade Mookie to afford him. Hope we held on to Verdugo and the receipt…

    Ohtani’s AAV of $70mill (which it won’t be because some money will undoubtedly be deferred) is higher than the payrolls of EIGHT MAJOR LEAGUE TEAMSin 2023 (source: Sportrac).

    Three of those teams did something last year Ohtani has never done - played in the postseason…

    So...

    Yamo to NYM, TOR, NYY?

    Snell to TOR, NYY?

    Monty to NYY or BOS?

    Lugo to BOS?

    More than a billion dollars for two players: Ohtani and Mookie!

    While money is differed, it essentially comes to about $100M a year.

    That is about the same or more than about a third of MLB teams.

    The Dodgers won 100 games last year without Ohtani, but it didn’t help come PS, and it might not next year either.

    As always, yes. They could sign Yamo, Bellinger and Monty and still miss out.

    A potential 1-2-3 of Mookie, Freeman and Ohtani is absolutely absurd. Plus they will have Will Smith, Muncy, Outman and will be getting back Gavin Lux back among others.

    I'd still bet the field for 2024.

    Figure out how much Ohtani is being paid per game . It will possibly drive you nuts.
    Old school is good school.

    You would bet against a team whose second highest paid pitcher is Ryan Yarbrough!?!!

    A potential 1-2-3 in the rotation of Buehler-Miller-Pepiot raises a few questions as well…

    The details on this deal is wild

    $68MM of Ohtani’s $70MM annual salary will be deferred, leaving him making just $2MM per year in the short term. The deferred money is to be paid out without interest from 2034 to 2043. This will reduce the CBT hit of the contract to around $46MM per year.

    His retirement plan is the best in the history of any sport.
