Curveball in the Summer of Ohtani

Jeff Blair starts the second hour with MLB Network insider Jon Morosi for a deep dive into Shohei Ohtani’s torn UCL. They chat about how it changes the offseason landscape changes for all Ohtani, the Angels and the MLB, his open-market value if he cannot pitch in the long term and which teams would still buy big on him. Later, from his UnderTheKnife sub stack, Will Carroll gets down to the nitty gritty on the exact nature of Ohtani’s injury (24:52), rehab options and the lack of longevity for pitchers throwing over 100 MPH. Jeff closes with your calls on the Back Leg Line!
