Source: Ohtani likely wouldn't opt out if team sold

According to a source who spoke with ESPN, Shohei Ohtani would likely not exercise a 'key man' clause in his contract that would allow him to opt out if Mark Walter were to sell the Los Angeles Dodgers. The clause was apparently included as a protection mechanism tied to the team's ownership. The report, filed by Alden Gonzalez, suggests Ohtani's commitment to the Dodgers remains intact regardless of a potential ownership change.
