When fans applauded and high-fived Ohtani’s three singles Sunday, it was as if they were congratulating themselves; they’d seen a unicorn, something to tell the grandkids about.
Even if the Angels are hoping against hope that Ohtani will decide he’s comfortable re-signing with a team that hasn’t had a winning record since 2015 so long as it caters to all his wishes.
That’s why potential offers for even two months of his services figures only to get sweeter as the Aug. 1 trade deadline approaches. Those overtures might not be what they once were, but they could prove enticing enough if they come from a team that thinks it has a real shot at winning the World Series. Think, say, of the Tampa Bay Rays.
Even as a rental, Ohtani is as bankable a get-you-over-the-hump guy as exists – for anyone, including the Angels.
