The episode discusses Shohei Ohtani's knee injury, the Red Sox's winning streak, Kyle Bradish's contract extension, and bullpen usage around the league.
What is going on with Shohei Ohtani's knee? Eno and DVR break down the latest update, what it means that Ohtani has continued to serve as the Dodgers' designated hitter, and why he's missed just one game since June 20. Then, they head to the AL East to discuss the red-hot Red Sox amid their 13-game winning streak and Kyle Bradish's new five-year deal with the Orioles. Later, they examine bullpen usage around the league and how it could shape the trade deadline market.
