Shohei Ohtani Is “Almost” Back to Normal
He's not quite at 100% yet, but he's doing better.
We have a “normal…ish” Shohei Ohtani, a closer who isn't returning to the closer role, and more on the State of the Dodgers: https://t.co/I9J7SFbTbd

That didn't stop the Dodgers from clinching another division title.
For the 5th straight year, and the 13th time in the last 14 seasons, the Los Angeles @Dodgers are NL West Champions!

Aaron Judge Criticized
Not going to the minors may have done him more harm than good.
“This is why you go on a rehab assignment.” @AJPierzynski12 and @ErikKratz31 react to Aaron Judge's early exit from yesterday's game… pic.twitter.com/hGDy3x4qFX

The Jesus Luzardo Case
It's normal to be worried.
Phillies fans, are you concerned about Jesús Luzardo?
“In his last nine starts before he got injured, he threw more pitches during that time frame than anyone in the majors,” @Ken_Rosenthal points out. pic.twitter.com/uCNOpLZkUM

The Phillies will have to ask more of Andrew Painter.
Andrew Painter is one of the most important pitchers in the NL postseason picture.
He has a 3.58 ERA in 9 starts since returning to the @Phillies MLB roster on July 31. @MLBNetwork

Anthony Santander still out
It doesn't look good for a return to action.
Santander is still not in the lineup in Buffalo today. I think we can write him off for this year. In one week of rehab, he's played just two games. @BlueJays @BuffaloBisons https://t.co/A27pOKOUZH
