Superstar Free Agent Shohei Ohtani Expected to Sign With New Team This Week

Superstar free agent Shohei Ohtani is likely to choose his next team "within the next week," MLB Network’s Jon Morosi reported Sunday morning.

Ohtani, who has spent the past six seasons as the Los Angeles Angels’ designated hitter and ace on the mound, is in line for one of the biggest contracts in baseball history, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan. The deal could net Ohtani upwards of $500 million, per Passan.
