Manny Ramirez will receive the same $2 million salary from the Red Sox in 2026 as Shohei Ohtani will from the Dodgers. This is due to deferred payments on Ramirez's pre-2001 contract, with 2026 being his final deferred payment year. Ohtani's mega-contract also features significant deferrals. Ramirez helped the Red Sox win the 2004 World Series, while Ohtani has already contributed to two Dodgers World Series titles.
