That’s fucked
$432,000 per game vs. $154,000
People tend to forget that the MLB season has 162 games in it.
What no salary caps does to a league
People tend to forget that mlb makes billions more than the nhl.
Edit:overestimated.
Both of these are outrageously high for someone to play a sport
How many games does an MLB team play?
How many fans are at each game?
One puts on a show literally every game. The other one throws a ball.
Ontani could be argued as an all star pitcher and all star hitter for the price of one. That doesn’t make the contract any better but hopefully he can get out of the doldrums of the angels
Ohtani is the most unique player in the history of the sport, where the sport has no salary cap.
The Dodgers will make that back with jersey sales in a few months.
MLB players are the most overpaid athletes in the world
Baseball sucks.
I don’t get how the MLB has this much money, I know literally no one that watches baseball
MLB has double the revenue of the NHL. So does the NBA.
At some point, it’ll be triple.
And yet I don’t watch a second of baseball
$8k per hour. Holy
I didn’t know baseball even generated enough revenue to pay that kind of money to a single player.
Don’t understand these threads. Like this is a normal MLB contract. There are a bunch of players with similar NHL contracts but literally no one has anything like Otani’s
and then you compare it to Ronaldo…, who is 4 times ohtani
Let me grab a kleenex….
[Passan](https://x.com/jeffpassan/status/1733617544471216149?s=46&t=sFQ1esZ2sOxJBCUP0CZX3g): Shohei Ohtani’s contract has significant deferrals that include most of his salary — an idea, a source said, that was Ohtani’s. In deferring the money, it reduces the cost of the competitive-balance-tax hit and will allow the Dodgers to build a better team around him.
I’m going to explain why Shohei Ohtani’s $700 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers will not equal $700 million in terms of MLB accounting or the present-day value of the deal.
When money in a contract is deferred, the competitive-balance tax number — the luxury tax — is discounted. With a source saying a “majority” of Ohtani’s contract is deferred, the discount could be significant. Typically, a CBT number is the average annual value of a deal — in this case $70 million. But depending on the size and length of the deferrals, Ohtani’s CBT number is likelier to wind up in the $40-50 million-a-year range, an enormous benefit for the Dodgers.
The deferrals also affect the net present value of the deal. There’s a rule of thumb across all walks of life: Money today is more valuable than money tomorrow, inflation being what it is. When you defer money, you’re taking less. The Dodgers are operating in an environment in which the prime rate is 8.5%. And with money today being so pricey, it lowers the present-day value of the deal by a significant margin.
Regardless, in the end, Shohei Ohtani will be paid 700 million US dollars by the Dodgers. It’s an obscene amount of money. It’s just going to be seen as less by the league’s accounting — and will allow the Dodgers to add even more around Ohtani as they try to win a championship.
Any other job that’s ever paid $8,000/hr?
lol NHL. Playing poor little brother to all major sports leagues.
I’m poor
They both make more per hour tha I make in a week.
Ohtani will make more while sleeping each night than the average American does each year.
Compare vs highest lacrosse player or top pickleball player
That MFs hourly needs to go *waaaaaayyyy* up, seeing ad how he only works about an hour every 5 days for just 4 months a year.
Ticket and concession prices are already too high. Baseball stadiums 2X the size of arenas. They can afford it. Stop posting garbage like this and giving them the idea they’re underpaid. It’s just going to make the sport even more unaffordable for regular people. We’ve already priced out the poor and bottom half of the middle class from enjoying the sport we love.
Higher paid players means higher ticket and cost of entry prices, which mean less people enjoy the sport we love. Period.
And he doesn’t even get hit !!
Tbh both are crazy when you consider the state of things in this country, but Othanis contract is just insane on ever metric.
Why does everyone in the hockey community give such a shit about how much athletes in other sports make? What difference does this realistically make to the game? I acknowledge that hockey players make much less but even still these guys are making more money than any of us will ever see and the hockey community online acts like they’re charity cases.
Every second this guy makes my daily coffee. That’s a lot of daily coffees.
