Angels unlikely to get anything when Ohtani walks

You guys don’t think he’ll want to stay there but pull a Judge and use another team to get the max offer? He’s clearly worth it.

It seems to me like they’re going to face a lot of backlash unless they extend him.
They can let one of the best players ever walk and get nothing in return, or they can trade him for a return that will feel insufficient and risk a strong contender, such as the Dodgers, extending him.
It’s a tough spot for the Angels.
Can they convince him to stay with just money though?
If I recall correctly, the narrative going into this season was that Ohtani is tired of not making the playoffs. If that’s true, then you might be right that money alone won’t do it.
Obviously Ohtani knows more about the Angels than I do, but from my perspective it’s hard to see why he’d want to return. The franchise has floundered around two all-time great talents for years now. They’ve never even had a winning season with Ohtani.
What do you think?
