The Los Angeles Angels were able to come just under the threshold of the luxury tax for this past season.

Should the Angels lose Shohei Ohtani in free agency, as expected, they will receive a compensatory draft pick. That's because the club extended a qualifying offer to Ohtani, who then rejected it. That pick will be a better one because they got under the tax threshold.

The compensatory pick should be around 70th overall. If they exceeded the luxury tax, the selection likely would have landed around 140th overall.
