GAME-CHANGER: How Shohei Ohtani’s MEGADEAL with Dodgers REWROTE Franchise and MLB History

Shohei Ohtani’s game-changing move to the Los Angeles Dodgers sparked a new era in Major League Baseball.

Can the Dodgers turn their dynasty into a historic three-peat? Harry Ruiz and Travis Rodgers break down the Ohtani effect—on the field and at the box office—exploring his impact on postseason success, his contract’s revolutionary deferrals, and the jaw-dropping growth in global tourism.
