On today's episode, Buster Olney and David Schoenfield break down the Brewers surge and the Cubs fall, discuss if Tarik Skubal could be traded midseason, why the Astros decade of dominance is over, and if Shohei Ohtani is the favorite in the NL Cy Young award race.

Tony Gwynn Jr. then joins us to discuss the Padres-Dodgers recent series; is it the best rivalry in baseball? Plus Mason Miller's dominance and why the MVP conversation around Ohtani is feeling like it did around Michael Jordan.

Sarah Langs tells us why Ohtani, Sal Stewart, and Jacob Misiorowski are doing things that we haven't seen in 50+ years, and Todd Radom gives us his 3 most underrated ballparks.
