The Ohtani Body Double, Wild Card Check-In, and The Yankees Are A .500 Team Once Again
Angels superstar Shohei Ohtani was absent from the teams Picture Day, which meant that a mysterious body double wearing an Ohtani jersey was called in to fill in his spot. Jake and Jordan ponder who this mystery man was, and discuss how this decision might have come about. Then, with only a few weeks remaining in the season, the boys take a bird’s eye view of the AL and NL Wild Card races and predict who will claim those spots. Finally, they touch on Giancarlo Stanton reaching 400 homers, Jasson Dominguez’ debut, Paul Skenes ruining Jake’s trip to Altoona, and the baseball equivalent to what Deion Sanders has done with the Colorado Buffaloes program.
