The Los Angeles Angels signed Ohtani to a record one-year, $30 million contract, the largest given to an arbitration-eligible player, and the biggest raise in baseball history.
The contract avoids what could have been a messy, but awfully intriguing arbitration hearing. Baseball has never had a two-way player in an arbitration hearing, let alone someone who has dominated the game on the mound and at the plate like Ohtani, the reigning American League MVP.
Ohtani, who is having even a better year than his MVP season is expected to finish second in the AL MVP voting this season behind Aaron Judge of the Yankees.
