Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley lament and talk about Shohei Ohtani’s UCL damage and its ramifications for the remainder of his season, his two-way future, his free company, the Angels, and the continued happiness of baseball followers and podcast co-hosts, adopted by conversations about Stephen Strasburg’s retirement (59:17), Wander Franco’s placement on administrative depart (1:11:30), and whether or not gamers are required to put on pants (1:21:06), plus a Future Blast from 2050 (1:31:37).
