The MLB season has gotten interesting, with playoffs looming over. With less than a month remaining, teams have pulled their socks up and are doing everything to cross the line for the playoffs. The Los Angeles Angels are one such team trying to shed its poor form to make it to the postseason. Though the road for them is challenging, with their latest win against the Cleveland Guardians, they have got some boost. And the latest update on injured Shohei Ohtani, who was absent in the last few games, has added more to the joy. 

Ohtani has opted for free agency and will be a free agent at the end of the season. And many have estimated that the 2021 AL MVP can get a $500 million deal. Because of this, he is expected to play the last few games for the Angels. However, his continuous absence from the squad brought the question of him leaving the team even before the end of the season. But the latest video might have ended that debate, giving fans something to enjoy.

Shohei Ohtani Looks Ready for the Rest of the Season

The past week brought many rumors to the fold. It started from Ohtani’s absence from the playing squad to the team pictures. Many thought he might just have played his last game of the season. All seems to be just presumption as proved by the latest surfaced video from The Sporting Tribune.

According to a video, Shohei Ohtani sweated hard on the pitch. Although he did not start the game, but looked good on the ground. The tweet further read, “Phil Nevin says Shohei Ohtani took swings today, but won’t be starting. The Angels will see how he feels tomorrow, but he’s getting closer to a return.”
