Plus other teams as well.... This may usher in a cap discussion which from a mid-market perspective would be good....Ohtani’s contract is more than the 2023 Opening Day payrolls of the Baltimore Orioles ($60.9 million) and Oakland Athletics ($56.9 million).

Money doesn't equal good. The Mets are first on that list.Great job ..Carly...I see Boston..middle of the pack....
The Mets proved that..they suck...Money doesn't equal good. The Mets are first on that list.

Nobody's worth $700 million. I don't care if you can knock the ball into orbit!Nope,Dodgers and a 700 million dollar contract.![]()
Don't you dare. He's so good to his mother.Too bad he is floundering like a fish out of water in California.![]()
So sad that baseball has come to this....smaller market teams have very little chance....
This guy gets it.It’s the opposite. It allows smaller market teams to offer bigger contracts and not be burdened for the time the player is there. They can space out money over a longer period of time. It’s what the nationals did with Max Scherzer. No one calls the nationals a big market team. They fit somewhere in the middle.
Given they've got 10 years to start coming up with they cash, there are going to be a lot of creative financing options available more than just using baseball revenue (ticket sales and TV money) to come up with it.I will be interested to see what the dodgers do when they are laying ohtani $68 million a year to not be there anymore. But that is 10 years away. Can’t hold my breath.

Hell, they can probably just bank the increased revenue they are going to get across Asia for this move to easily cover it.
Ohtani also makes north of 40MM USD a year from endorsements, which is why he's able to do this
