Summary

Orioles All-Star closer Félix Bautista will hit the IL as UCL injuries are running rampant in MLB right now. We talk about how this will affect the Orioles potential playoff success and why the game needs Dallas’s baboon ligament surgery more than ever. The Mariners are red-hot and have taken over first place in the AL West. We’re taking a look at the AL West and determining who we’re most confident in having playoff success between the Mariners, Astros, and Rangers. We also break down the drama between the Angels and Ohtani, Brandon Lowe’s comments about the Yankees, Mookie taking over as the NL MVP favorite, the depressing state of the Padres, and more! Thanks for listening and we’ll see you on Wednesday!
