What If Shohei Ohtani Had Joined the Rays in 2023?

The Athletic revisits a seriously discussed 2023 deadline scenario in which Shohei Ohtani could have been traded from the Angels to the Rays for top Rays prospects Junior Caminero and Carson Williams. Angels owner Arte Moreno balked at the deal, and Ohtani later signed with the Dodgers as a free agent. The piece uses the “what if” to illustrate how one decision might have reshaped both clubs, highlighting Caminero’s emerging star power and the Angels’ missed opportunity.

Rays Set to Promote Top Prospect Junior Caminero

The Tampa Bay Rays are calling up top prospect Junior Caminero from Double-A to bolster their roster for the remainder of the season. Caminero, a shortstop and third baseman, has been impressive in the minor leagues, hitting .324 with 31 home runs and 94 RBIs in 117 games. With the Rays currently 1.5 games behind the Baltimore Orioles in the AL East, Caminero's offensive production and elite exit velocities are expected to provide a boost to the team. Despite not being in the big leagues by September 1, Caminero will be eligible for the Rays' postseason roster.
