Interesting that if there is an ownership change or President of Baseball ops change, Ohtani can opt out.
Ownership not likey but President of Baseball ops? For Ohtani to do that and guarantee the employment of one man for 10 years,seems pretty suspicious...good chance of some under the table assurances from the Pobo that would (further) circumvent the cap and convince him to come to LA.
Also interesting that the deferral money idea came from the Ohtani camp at the last minuteish last week.
No reporters had the guts to ask about the Jays, though this was a sanitzed Dodgers event. I wonder when they will.
