BUCKLE YOUR SEATBELTS BECAUSE WE’RE ALL IN ON SHOHEI THIS WEEK. We gotta give him his due for the absolute tear he’s been on - an iconic 8RBI game followed by an unbelievable career high 13ks the next night…and after a couple days of rest, a little 462ft homer as the icing on the cake. We get into whether or not he’s getting the appreciation he deserves and what a nice boy does during a baseball brawl. (Spoiler alert: he’s a hugger, not a fighter.)

In the rest of the league, our boy Mitch White is back in the show, Steven Kwan has risen to a new role as the everyday leadoff hitter for Cleveland, and Rob Refsnyder is absolutely on fire.
