Los Angeles Angels star, Shohei Ohtani, is one of the most popular faces in Major League Baseball. Considering his popularity and his all-around skills on the field, any team would want to keep him by their side. But, his current team, LA Angels, will not let that happen so easily.
Notably, Ohtani’s contract with the Angels will expire after the 2024 season, if he doesn’t extend his contract. And that is something which the Angels might not want at any cost. Recently, the former President of Miami Marlins, David P. Samson, also admitted his love for Ohtani.
