Big news in baseball! Shohei Ohtani has officially made his decision on where he will play in 2024 and beyond.
The superstar free agent agreed to a historic 10-year, $700 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, ending months of speculation over his next move. The Giants were one of the teams heavily pursuing Ohtani this offseason but it seems they were not in the final running for his services.
According to the New York Post’s Jon Heyman, the Dodgers, Toronto Blue Jays, and Los Angeles Angels were the final three teams Ohtani was deciding between, not the Giants. Looks like San Francisco and the Chicago Cubs missed the cut.
Given the Giants’ history of finishing second for superstar players, maybe finishing fourth or fifth might sting a little less for fans of the orange and black. Or not. Probably not, actually.
