Mark Walter, controlling owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, recently surprised the sports world with his sale of the Los Angeles Lakers for $12.5 billion.
The sale triggered some speculation about Shohei Ohtani, who has a clause in his contract that would allow him to opt out if Walter sells the Dodgers.
But Bob Nightengale of USA TODAY Sports reports: A person close to Shohei Ohtani said that even if Walter ... sells the franchise, Ohtani is definitely staying put.
Ohtani, 32, is in the third year of a 10-year, $700 million contract with the Dodgers.
