Shohei Ohtani has proven his worth this season.
If he can help the Dodgers to a World Series title at the end of the season, any remaining naysayers will be convinced that his massive 10-year, $700 million contract was worth every penny.
The Philadelphia Phillies are visiting the Los Angeles Dodgers for a three-game series and their former general manager-turned-broadcast Ruben Amaro Jr. has been in awe of what Ohtani can do. As a guest on Foul Territory, he said the contract, while expensive, was worth it.
“I don’t know if it’s worth it but it’s not my money,” Amaro said.
