exited his start on the mound in the second inning Wednesday
Ohtani's pitch velocity was the major red flag, as his numbers were significantly down across the board. His four-seam fastball was 3.8 mph lower than his season average The Angels now face the question of a second Tommy John surgery for Ohtani, with the timing a particular concern. Ohtani was reported to have been recommended Tommy John in early Sept. 2019, but put off the procedure until Oct. 1 while he continued to hit for the Angels.
The Angels' season is effectively over, despite them betting on themselves as playoff contenders at the trade deadline and acquiring right-hander Lucas Giolito from the Chicago White Sox. The team holds a record of 61-67 and sits 10.5 games back from the third and final wild-card spot after getting swept in a doubleheader against the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday.
