The team has accepted he won’t pitch again this season, viewing it as a chance for him to focus solely on hitting and improve for next year. Manager Dave Roberts admits Ohtani hasn’t looked like his usual self at the plate, and removing pitching from his plate was part of the plan to help him regain rhythm. Meanwhile, the Rams are gearing up for their Australia opener, with star Aaron Donald sounding ready but staying coy about whether he’ll actually travel. On the baseball front, the Angels are in a deep slump, dropping 12 of their last 14 games after another loss to the Red Sox.
