That's an insane amount of money!!! I'm happy we'll finally be able to see Ohtani in October. And that he won't be playing for the Blue Jays!

The Dodgers were clearly planning this, I looked it up and they entered the off-season $100M under the tax threshold.

IDK how that's possible with their roster but that's wild

Before this signing, the only players committed to more than $10M next year were Freddie, Mookie, and Chris Taylor
