Here's how to get Ohtani.

1. Get Yamamoto first. Blow him away with six years and $200 million.
2. Key point; Offer $550 million for 10 years. First year, $50 million. Second year, $70 million. Third year, $70 million. The rest prorated, and Ohtani gets to opt out after the second and third years.

Problem is 50 and 70 million make it pretty difficult for you to do much else without going way over the luxury tax.
