Los Angeles Angels superstar Shohei Ohtani, an impending free agent, will be staying in town this year despite past rumors and speculation connecting him to contenders elsewhere.
After throwing a complete-game, one-hit shutout against the Detroit Tigers on Thursday, Ohtani told reporters that he didn't want to leave the Angels this year and looks forward to welcoming new additions to the club.
Sam Blum of The Athletic relayed the quotes.
