The magnitude of Shohei Ohtani’s seven hundred million dollar, ten-year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers stunneԀ even elite performers in other sports.

The commotion surrounding Ohtani’s free agency escalated on Friday, and the details of his deal only served to exacerbate it. The completely guaranteed contract is currently the biggest in the history of professional sports in North America.

People started to trend “Seven hundred million dollars” on X, formerly Twitter, as a result of their inability to comprehend the amount Ohtani will make. Not just fans responded in that way.

The quantity is astounding, ranging from Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell to Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Two-time NFL MVP and two-time Suρer Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes responded to three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year J.J. Watt’s astonished expression with three laughing emojis.

In contrast, Mahomes will receive the highest salary in NFL history over a four-year period of $210.6 million under the terms of his recently renegotiated contract with the Chiefs. Feeling overwhelmed by the sum, he congratulated Ohtani on the momentous agreement.

There is no denying Ohtani’s skill, and at this point in MLB, none can match his two-way abilities. From the mound or at the plate, the two-time MVP Award winner can take command of a game. Taking advantage of Ohtani’s attraction, Watt pushed Mahomes to begin improving his defense in order to get paid more.

The NFL and MLB are two very different worlds because of the pay cap. The NBA is no different, having made almost $479 million in revenue from its all-time top scorer, LeBron James, over the course of 21 seasons.

Mitchell and Josh Hart, the guard for the New York Knicks, added their thoughts as well, expressing similar shоck at the sum. With the Utah Jazz, Mitchell is presently playing under a five-year, $166,300 contract, which he declined to extend in October.

In retirement, legendary NBA guard Magic Johnson has no personal attachments, therefore he responded to Ohtani’s contract as such. In October, Forbes declared Johnson to be a billionaire. He attained this status by investing in a variety of companies, including Sparks, the Washingtоn Commanders, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the Lakers. He owns stock in the LAFC, an MLS team, as well.

Gavin Lux of the Dodgers woke up thrilled about his new buddy. When he learned of the news, legendary Cincinnati Reds player Joey Votto needed to be checked on. The Reds paid a buyout on Votto’s 10-year, $225 million contract, ending his 22-year association with the team and setting a franchise record.
