    Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani: Expected to pitch Wednesday

    Shohei Ohtani (knee) is expected to make his first start of the second half Wednesday against the Phillies, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.Knee irritation kept Ohtani from making his final start on the mound before the All-Star break. He addressed the issue by receiving an injection of lubricant during the break, rather than having his knee drained, and he now seems to be back on track toward resuming his duties as a pitcher. He will continue to serve as the Los Angeles Dodgers' regular designated hitter in the meantime and make his eighth consecutive start at DH against the Yankees on Friday.

    Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani: Gets knee drained Sunday

    Shohei Ohtani is set to get his left knee drained shortly after the Los Angeles Dodgers' contest Sunday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.Ohtani will get his problematic left knee addressed as soon as possible ahead of the All-Star break in order to maximize his healing time. The two-way star is skipping the Midsummer Classic this year in order to get extra rest, as he's been dealing with inflammation in his knee since mid-June. Though the issue resulted in him missing his most recent start as a pitcher, he's expected to retake his regular spot in the rotation following the break. Ohtani doesn't seem to be impacted much by the knee as a hitter, as he went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run Sunday and closed the first half with a home run in four of his final six contests.
