Agent: Shohei Ohtani Could Have Pursued 15-Year Deal 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri May 9, 2025 4:41 am

Shohei Ohtani could have pursued a 15-year contract through age 44, agent Nez Balelo said Thursday, explaining that the two-way superstar didn\'t want to risk a decline in his skills while under the big deal.

Balelo pulled back the curtain that shrouds Ohtani a bit when he spoke at Sportico\'s Invest West conference featuring decision-makers in sports, entertainment and finance at the new Intuit Dome, home of the NBA\'s LA Clippers.
