Rival MLB general managers reportedly "are not convinced" the Los Angeles Angels won't listen to trade offers for two-way sensation Shohei Ohtani this offseason.
Angels general manager Perry Minasian said definitively Monday that Ohtani "is not getting moved," but a source told ESPN's Jeff Passan on Thursday that Washington Nationals GM Mike Rizzo long held the same stance on outfielder Juan Soto before ultimately trading him to the San Diego Padres in August.
"It was the same thing with Rizz. He wasn't going to trade him until he did," an unnamed GM told Passan.
