Shohei Ohtani Plans To Pitch Next Year, “Hard To Tell” On Offseason Surgery
Two-way star Shohei Ohtani had a shaky end to the season, both at the plate and on (or rather off) the mound.

Offseason Outlook: Atlanta Braves
The Braves won the NL East and defeated the Phillies in the wild card round before falling to the Dodgers in the NLDS.
