Hello and welcome.

It's our number two, our two of the Ben Mallor show, the podcast variety with limited commercial interruption.

And we span the globe, an international story involving Shohei Otani and a report from the MLB Network.

Is it true?

The Angels will not, under any condition, trade Shohei Otani to the rival Dodgers.

Also, how much interest is there in the Cubs, Cody Bellinger?

And what are the chances the Mets hit the eject button

and make Pete Alonzo, the polar bear available on the trade market?

We toss out a scenario where that could actually happen.

We'll get to all of that and much more right now.

Give it up for our number two.

Call it a case of heavenly hell if you will welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben Mather show we go all night long in the air

everywhere jointly as we say good in the air everywhere.

Jointly, as we say, good gravy, coast to coast, border to border, and beyond on the vast.

And noisily powerful microphones of FSR emanating live from the talk as we talk a mile a minute, but not like

that guy, Jed, who fled, who occasionally calls the show.

We are broadcasting live from the Tyraq.com studios.

Tyraq.com will help you get there in unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road hazard protection over 10,000 recommended

The countdown continues.
