Ohtani Knee Injury Keeping Him Off Mound, Lineup Status Uncertain
A knee injury has sidelined Ohtani as a pitcher for the Dodgers. His hitting continues, but a return to pitching could shift NL MVP dynamics.
Shohei Ohtani is currently dealing with a knee injury that has prevented him from pitching for the Dodgers. He remains active as a hitter and hit his 30th home run on August 19. The timeline for his return to pitching is unclear. If he returns to the mound, his NL MVP case would strengthen considerably against Pete Crow-Armstrong.
