Dave Roberts Provides Full Update on Shohei Ohtani Ahead of Game 3 for Dodgers
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts provided a full update on Shohei Ohtani’s injury Sunday. Ohtani is expected to play in Game 3 of the World Series against the New York Yankees Monday night.
Roberts didn’t reveal what the MRI of Ohtani’s shoulder showed, but based on his conversations with the training staff, he expects Ohtani to be in the lineup tomorrow. The final decision will come down to Ohtani’s pain level and tolerance.
“As far as test results, we’ve got doctors scrambling everywhere,” Roberts said. “I don’t have them. This is more me going by the training staff. Shohei feeling good this morning, range of motion, strength. He should be at the ballpark here in the next 30 minutes, and going to go through the workout.”
Walker Buehler also shared what it means to have Ohtani in the lineup for Game 3.
“Any time you have probably the best baseball player in the world, I think it’s going to help and frees up some of the other guys to kind of play with a little less pressure or a little more freedom, however you want to say it,” Buehler said.
