Allow me to be the 109,415th person to tell you that Shohei Ohtani is a unicorn, and that his current free agency is unlike anything we’ve ever seen. It’s cliché to say it. It’s repetitive to say it.
But it’s not overplayed, because it simply cannot be said enough. Shohei Ohtani is a unicorn. And Shohei Ohtani’s current free agency is unlike anything we’ve ever seen.
You could make the case that no player as good as Ohtani has ever hit free agency. You could make the case that no player as popular as Ohtani has ever hit free agency.
