Episode Description from the Publisher

It’s Shohei Ohtani’s world and we’re just living in it. Ohtani goes another five strong innings while launching a home run, and with breaking news of a trade that had been in the works, the guys take a deep dive into Ohtani’s career path he mapped out for himself and what could have been had he ended up with the Tampa Bay Rays. Kyle Harrison’s next step irks Jared and Tyler, but sparks a debate over the best 1-2 pitching duos in Major League Baseball right now. Meanwhile, the Baltimore Orioles get swept by Tampa Bay, leaving fans wondering: what’s next? And lastly, Tyler goes head-to-head with Dallas in Family Feud as the two try to eclipse the 200-point mark. 00:00:00 - Rested and Ready To Roll 00:01:47 - Wally Pip Situation??  00:07:04 - Dallas Slanders Saugus  00:12:54 -  Shohei Ohtani Almost Traded To The Rays? 00:47:52 - Kyle Harrison: The Next Great Brewers Project   00:56:03 - Best 1-2 Pitching Combinations in Baseball  01:00:08 - Orioles Swept By Tampa Bay, What’s Next? 01:24:10 - José Berríos Out For The Season  01:36:03 -  Family Feud 01:50:43 - Award-Winning Nugs    01:52:01 - Final Thoughts NEW BID MERCH IS HERE: https://www.baseballisdead.com Trade $20 get $20 on Kalshi - http://www.kalshi.com/r/BID Learn more about your ad choices.
