Dodgers Post podcast: What to make of Shohei Ohtanis knee injury

The Dodgers are hopeful that Shohei Ohtani’s knee inflammation issue won’t prove to be a serious injury.But that doesn’t mean the ailment isn’t a cause for concern.On the latest episode of the Dodgers Post podcast, that’s what California Post baseball writers Dylan Hernandez and Jack Harris are discussing — in the wake of Ohtani’s early exit from Thursday’s game in Pittsburgh with his knee inflammation injury.The two analyze whether the injury should prompt the Dodgers to reevaluate Ohtani’s two-way usage this year, ways the Dodgers could take a little bit off the two-way star’s plate, but also there’s value in keeping Ohtani’s all-around role largely intact; both for their chances to win this year and for the historical significance of Ohtani’s career.California Post News: Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, WhatsApp, LinkedInCalifornia Post Sports Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, XCalifornia Post Opinion California Post Newsletters: Sign up here!California Post App: Download here!Home delivery: Sign up here!Page Six Hollywood: Sign up here!Later, they go over the rest of the team’s series win in Pittsburgh, as well as other injuries to Justin Wrobleski and Will Smith.They also open up the mailbag and answer some questions and comments from the audience, before finishing up with predictions for this coming week and Dodgers trivia as usual.California's top news, sports and entertainment delivered to your inbox every day.
