Saw a tweet, which was obviously fake, that said Ohtani's contract paid him 1 million a year for the next 9 years and then 691 million in the 10th year. It got me thinking, would we maybe see something like that in baseball at some point? Not to that extreme of course, but some sort of grossly inflated balloon payment in a contract where the team basically alters a contract to pay a smaller amount for bulk of it, and then has a season or two with massive payouts. Full on cap manipulation. And if the balloon payment years were the first and last years, it might even get a player to sign off on it. So in Ohtani's case. 100 million in year 1 and 10 and then years 2-9, 62.5 million a year or something like that.
