About this episode
MLBTR founder Tim Dierkes joins Darragh McDonald to discuss the record-breaking deal that Shohei Ohtani signed with the Dodgers and all of the craziness surrounding it. This includes whether the huge amount of deferred money is fair, if the contract is good for the game of baseball and how much to trust media reports from "scoop reporters." Also, they react to the blockbuster deal sending Juan Soto to the Yankees and talk about the New York's fearsome lineup, the position the Padres are left in and what Soto's free agent deal could look like next offseason.
