You fail to understand that the Dodgers are run like an investment firm not an MLB team, which makes sense, given that they’re owned by Guggenheim Partners. Even Andrew Friedman was an investment banker before coming into baseball. Here is why the Dodgers will easily be able to pay for all of the deferrals, using Ohtani’s deal as an example: Beginning next year they have to put aside $46M per year. Any great investment firm, such as Guggenheim will EASILY get a conservative 7.5% annual ROI on that $46M p/y they are putting aside (investing) for the deferred payments. $46M x 7.5% over 10 years of compounded interest = $94.8M. They pay him the $68M they owe him, they’re left w/ $26.8M leftover. These are conservative ROI figures, but the real ROI will likely be much higher. They’ll do this, year after year, with every deferred payment contract, for every player. This doesn’t even cover additional revenue from advertisement, TV deal, tickets, playoff $$, merchandise, etc. The Dodgers formula is simple - defer, invest, it almost pays for itself. Like others say, the “Dodgers are printing money” & they’re not far off from the truth.
