Los Angeles Angels star Shohei Ohtani will make $30 million in 2023 after he and the team agreed to a one-year contract for next season to avoid arbitration.

The contract is the largest ever for an arbitration-eligible player, surpassing the $27 million given to Mookie Betts by the Boston Red Sox in January 2020, a month before he was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Ohtani's deal is fully guaranteed with no other provisions.

Ohtani, who is making $5.5 million this year, will be a free agent after the 2023 season.

Arte better hurry up and sell the team to a better owner, they got an extension to the doomsday clock

I think he’s still a free agent after next season, this agreement means he’s getting $30M next season.

Arte and the Angels securing a whole season of ads next year while likely trading him next summer if they’re out of contention and he doesn’t sign an extension.

Ah gotcha thought it was after this season. Well then they got even more time to get it together before he escapes up the 5 freeway :nerd:
