Deferring of Salaries: The Unique Case of Shohei Otani
Shohei Otani's new contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers has grabbed attention due to its unusual salary structure. While the reported value of the contract is 10 years and $700 million, Otani will only receive $20 million over the first 10 years. The remaining $680 million will be deferred and paid out in equal installments of $68 million per year from 2034 to 2043. This deferral allows the Dodgers to stay below the luxury tax threshold in the present and potentially gives them more wiggle room to acquire additional players. The legality of this structure is permitted by Article XVI of the collective bargaining agreement, which sets no limitations on deferred compensation.
