KONS 2022 Baseball Preview: Hitters Hit, Pitchers Pitch, Ohtani Is Limitless

The game changed--literally--once the smoke cleared and the owners ended the lockout of Major League Baseball players a month ago. The playoffs got a Wild Card series instead of a one-and-done game, the defensive shift got banned (next year), and the universal DH finally came to the big leagues, ruining baseball strategy or sparing us the sight of pitchers trying to hit, depending on your point of view. Dre and Jay chop it up and break down 2022 on the diamond. Will they pick the Braves to once again claim the World Series despite letting the heart of the franchise walk to Los Angeles? If not, whose time has come to sit atop the throne?
