Hello and welcome.

It's our number two as we try to outfox the podcast competition talking baseball.

We record this podcast overnight, so you have fresh audio content.

Now, overnight, we discussed the Shohei Otani sweepstakes.

And we asked the question, has Otani's free agency been a waste

for Major League Baseball? He's attempted to cut off insider information, which would have created

excitement and drama on where Otani's going to go. And so we discussed that. Also, did Dave Roberts

screw things up by dropping an

Otani nugget at the Dodgers had a meeting with Otani? Also, Brian Cashman says the Yankees

have very few untouchables. Do you believe him? We'll talk about that as well. It's all coming

your way right now. Here it is our number two.

Putting the O in O-Tonni, as in, oh, where's the news? Where's the O'Tonnie news? Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben Mallor show.
