What are the chances we’ll see the Mets land two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani next winter? It’s bound to be a bidding war, with New York and the Los Angeles Dodgers being two of the expected favorites.
But remember how Ohtani wanted nothing to do with the East Coast before signing with the Angels in December 2017? That may not be as much of a roadblock anymore, according to a recent report from Jon Heyman of the New York Post.
While it seems like Mets owner Steve Cohen very much wants to make a run at Ohtani, it’s far from a certainty that the Amazins would actually land him in free agency.
