Braves need to re-sign Ozuna regardless of DH decision & Dombrowski leading Phillies

DOB and EOF return to discuss the now tepid universal designated-hitter waters. For a rule that, seemingly, all back, why is MLB approaching the decision apprehensively (:30)? Does the ambivalence lie with the owners? Regardless of the league's judgement, Atlanta needs to re-sign Marcell Ozuna (13:30). Both Dave and Eric chat about the 30-year-old's impact on and off the field. A relatively stagnant free agency period has only experience a few blips, one such being the Mets' signing James McCann. What is Steve Cohen's plan, and Eric details the challenges of playing in New York where every word is over analyzed and amplified (40:00). Dave Dombrowski is the Philadelphia Phillies' new president of baseball operations (53:00). What can fans expect from two-time World Series-winning executive, and is Bryce Harper still in Phillies plans for the future? Lastly, Scott Boras speaks out (1:14:00).
