The Dodgers aren’t saving money or taxes on Ohtani’s contract: it’s really just a $46 million annual contract. The Dodgers are acting as Ohtani’s investment banker, investing Ohtani’s $46 million in a 5% annual annuity and paying back the lump sum ten years later. The “$70 million” annual amount is just a lie for a Ohtani’s ego.
