ANAHEIM ― Angels manager Phil Nevin said Shohei Ohtani hasn’t had any issues throwing since his most recent start was cut short due to cramping in his right middle finger, and Ohtani’s next pitching appearance will come against the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday at Angel Stadium.
Any injury to Ohtani would be a major blow to the Angels, who occupy a delicate position in the standings. They entered Saturday’s game 5 ½ games out of the American League wild-card race, needing to leapfrog four teams to clinch a playoff spot with less than two months remaining in the regular season.
It’s the first major league call-up of 2023 for Rosenberg, who made three appearances for the Angels in 2022 and went 0-0 with a 4.22 ERA. He was designated for assignment after last season, returned on a minor league contract, and went 7-7 with a 4.93 ERA in 19 games for Triple-A Salt Lake. “He’s done a lot of great things for our club,” Nevin said. “It was a hard conversation here. We talked on the phone last night as well. He gets it. He understands it. He’s a pro. He’s been through it before.”Outfielder Taylor Ward had surgery Friday on the orbital bone that was fractured when he was struck in the face by a pitch last Saturday in Toronto. Nevin also said Ward had internal splints inserted into his nose.
