Ohtani Injury Update Ahead of Playoffs | Sports News

Shohei Ohtani’s injury woes hit a new milestone as he heads to the injured list with knee and biceps issues, sidelining him since early July—just as the Dodgers’ playoff push heats up. Despite a recent slump at the plate, the team’s 15-6 surge since mid-August and second-best NL record make his potential postseason return a must-watch moment for MLB fans and broadcasters alike. Manager Dave Roberts confirms Ohtani won’t pitch again this season, but expects him ready to contribute in October—even if not at full strength. With Aaron Judge back on the Yankees and the Dodgers’ rivals closing in, every game matters—and Ohtani’s presence could be the difference-maker.
