Among the numerous players hitting free agency, much of the excitement is centered around a single player. Fans and even other players are on the edge of their seats, wondering where their favorite Japanese player will end up this offseason. You guessed it right, it’s Shohei Ohtani. Becoming the most sought-after free agent in MLB history, clubs are lining up left and right as suitors, trying to acquire him with the greatest possible contract. But the big question is, where will Ohtani end up?

Amidst all the nail-biting scenarios, fans are also anticipating Shotime’s next jersey colors. The top two frontrunners seem to be the Los Angeles Dodgers and Texas Rangers. Will the two-way marvel stay in Los Angeles or go to the 2023 World Series winners?

Shohei Ohtani Sweepstakes: Texas Rangers or Los Angeles Dodgers?

Shohei Ohtani trade discussions are stirring up excitement in the baseball world. Everyone wants the Los Angeles Angels superstar, who is expected to secure one of the greatest deals of the season. Several teams, including the Los Angeles Dodgers, Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, Texas Rangers, San Diego Padres, and many others are keeping their eyes on the superstar. Even though it’s confirmed that Ohtani will not be pitching in 2024, several analysts believe it won’t significantly impact the predicted $500 million. With so many teams on the list, which ones are at the top?

The team holding the 2023 World Series title, the Texas Rangers may be on the list of Ohtani picks. With the taste of winning fresh in the club, the Rangers are ready to go for the two-way phenom. According to reports, the Texas-based team even wanted Shotime at the tread deadline back in August but of course, the Angels refused.

On the other hand, Ohtani’s favorite team list could also include the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Japanese sensation has apparently expressed his preference for West Coast teams and of course, not many are better than the Dodgers. The team is well-rounded for players like Shohei Ohtani and is in desperate need of a good pitching staff anyway. Even if the two-way player won’t be back on the mound next season, he might be worth investing in.
