BOSTON -- The Boston Red Sox will not land Japanese star free agent Shohei Ohtani, a 23-year-old two-way star who pitches and plays outfield.

They won't even land a meeting with him.

"We have been informed that we have not been invited to make an in-person presentation," Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski told MassLive.com in an email Sunday.

Yankees GM Brian Cashman also said Ohtani told New York that he won't sign there, per Brendan Kuty of NJ.com.

The Red Sox had only $462,000 in bonus pool money left to offer Ohtani, an international amateur free agent.

The Texas Rangers have the most bonus pool money left to offer at $3.535 million. The Yankees have $3.5 million.

The Twins have $3.07 million.

Ohtani batted .286 with a .358 on-base percentage, .500 slugging percentage, .859 OPS, 48 homers, 70 doubles, four triples, 166 RBIs, 150 runs and 13 steals in 403 games (1,170 plate appearances) in four seasons for the Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters of the Japan Pacific League.

He posted a 42-15 with a 2.52 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, 13 complete games and seven shutouts in 85 outings (82 starts) over the past five seasons.

Any team that signs Ohtani must pay a $20 million posting fee to the Nippon Ham Fighters.
