Shohei Ohtani's $700 million contract with the Dodgers obliterated Mike Trout's previous record ( $426.5 million ) But there are future free agents who could challenge other contract records by the end of the decade .

The 2029-30 offseason marks the first player option in the massive extension Rodríguez signed near the end of his 2022 rookie season .

It's possible that the player who receives the largest contract in the 2027-28 offseason is a pitcher.

The 23-year-old is arguably the best shortstop in the game already, slashing.

Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio became the first star prospect to sign a long-term extension before making his MLB debut last spring .

He won't become a free agent until the 2031-32 offseason, when he's 31 .

Padres outfielder Fernando Tatís Jr. was at the forefront of the early extension trend.
