LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Dodgers will officially introduce Shohei Ohtani at a news conference on Thursday.

The two-time AL MVP agreed to a record $700 million, 10-year contract last weekend, a deal that the team announced Monday and provides that 97% of the money be deferred without interest and not fully paid until 2043.

"The World Series is the goal going in," reliever Joe Kelly said Wednesday.

Ohtani will be introduced during a news conference in Dodger Stadium's Centerfield Plaza starting 3 p.
