On Monday, the Angels announced they expect to have 28-year-old two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani on their OpeningDay roster come next spring
Angels general manager Perry Minasian told reporters L.A. will not trade Ohtani this offseason,. The news comes on the heels of Ohtani, the reigning AL MVP and a finalist for this year’s award, signing a one-year, $30 million deal on Oct. 1 to avoid arbitration.
Barring a change in circumstances, Ohtani will now head into the 2023 season looking to power the Angels to success alongside fellow star Mike Trout. Another bad start to the year, however, could re-ignite the trade rumors next year, especially if Ohtani feels similarly about the direction of the team as he did reflecting on the Angels’ struggles in October.
