Shohei Ohtani Rumors: Dodgers Have NL West Competition in Sweepstakes for Two-Way Star

We are officially less than a week away from the August 1st trade deadline, and the Shohei Ohtani trade story is getting closer to its climax. The Dodgers are known to have some level of interest. But at this point, that’s not exactly newsworthy.

There’s so much chatter about Ohtani across the majors that it feels like every team is in the race for the superstar – including an NL West rival.

According to a report from MLB Network’s, Jon Morosi, the Diamondbacks are among the teams inquiring about Shohei Ohtani’s availability.

For the past month, Angels Owner, Arte Moreno, has said multiple times that the chances of Ohtani being traded this summer solely depends on how strong his team can finish in terms of wins.
