Ohtani was going to dictate the free-agent market. Perhaps that will still be the case, but it will not be the same.
It’s been about what might happen with the Angels’ two-way unicorn. First, it was the. Would the hard-luck Angels part ways with Ohtani in order to jumpstart a much-needed rebuild? Next, it was the potential free agency figures. Would he command a record $500 million? Maybe even $600 million or higher than $700 million?

Even if Ohtani requires a second Tommy John surgery and cannot pitch in 2024, the best guess is he will return to the mound. In his six major-league seasons, he has defied every prediction, every expectation, repeatedly...
