I believe he just signed a 1 year deal with the A's for 3.5 million.

Good to see him getting PAID. I believe that's his first serious contract in terms of 7 figure money.

He should’ve gotten a HECK of a LOT more $3.5MM!! His agent should’ve done better than that if he used an agent.

Baseball has several years of arbitration before you become a free agent. This was his first year. He will have 2 more before free agency. Here's what Ohtani's arbitration looked like

Year 1 $3million
Year 2 $5million
Year 3 $30million
Free Agency $700million

Rook just needs to put up a few more good years.

Ohtani’s income over time amazingly mirrors that of pizza restaurants

Yep. I am going to be rich.

I have my dishwasher mining Bitcoin, my cashier is playing scratch offs, my bartender is giving tuggies to rich guys in order to blackmail them laters, my doughmaker is buying meme stocks with tip money, and if all that fails I am going to jump out in front of a UPS truck and sue the shìt out of them.

Unfortunately he's getting pretty old to put up a few good years. He's 30 now. Took a long time to work his way up
