Yes I said that, and yet the Dodgers are where they are, so they are not reliant on a good performance by Ohtani to win. I feel like I keep saying the same thing pretty consistently.

It's a straw man. No team is THAT dependent on one player, no team at a high level anyway, that they couldn't win without him. So by that definition, there is nobody who would ever be a costly loss. But that's not how most people would define a costly loss.

The sprain came in the last game of the regular season and the initial prognosis was out several weeks. Either it wasn't as bad as originally diagnosed or Freeman is a BAAAAAD man.

The Dodgers have so many ways to beat you. It's been a different set of guys each series in the playoffs.
