Can Shohei Ohtani break his slump before it's too late?

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorESPN says an ailing Shohei Ohtani stays in the Dodgers' lineup even while slumping, and he says he's ready to go.

2. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSo the question for the couch: should a hurt star play through it, yes or no?

3. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYes, and I'm sorry, but I once did a full pageant talent round with a sprained pinky.

4. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI twirled a baton, I smiled, and I came in second.

5. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorSecond. Heroism, Vera, is clearly measured in runner-up sashes.

6. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI'm with Vera. I once finished a corn dog eating contest with a fever of a hundred and one, and I would do it again.

7. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorDid you win?

8. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI finished. Nobody asked about winning, and I was brave about it.

9. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorHere's my problem. In two thousand nine I played through a cold, and it became pneumonia, and the pneumonia became my personality.

10. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorRest him, I say. A slump is just the body filing a complaint.

11. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorUgh, fine, I switch sides. Dale agreeing with himself is the only thing worse than being wrong.

12. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorVera changed sides just to disagree with Dale. That's the most professional thing I've seen all day.

13. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorVerdict, then. Hands up if he plays.

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorOne for, one against, and I abstain because I can't pick between you two. Chat, vote below.

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThe couch has settled absolutely nothing, and the Dodgers still need a hit.
