As the Los Angeles Dodgers take on the New York Mets in a three-game weekend series, manager Dave Roberts announced a pertinent Shohei Ohtani injury update regarding his pitching status.

LA defeated the Mets on Friday night thanks to a late-inning 2-run home run from Kyle Tucker. On Friday night, Shohei Ohtani went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI.

Shohei has been shut down since before the All-Star break due to a left knee injury. The Dodgers are being careful with the injury.

On Saturday, before the Dodgers game against the Mets, manager Dave Roberts revealed a new Shohei Ohtani injury update.

@THEREAL_DV (David Vassegh) wrote (via X.com): “Dave Roberts said Ohtani âkicked the canâ on his scheduled bullpen session today. Ohtaniâs knee didnât feel 100%”
@JonHeyman also wrote: “Shohei Ohtaniâs pen session scheduled for today was postponed as he didnât feel great in his last one. Dave Roberts said he still believes Ohtani will pitch again this season. And while the delay is âa bummer,â Roberts said thatâs heâs going to be the MVP, regardless.”

Despite the knee ailment, Shohei Ohtani has still been able to make an impact with the bat in his hands.
So, according to the report from Roberts, it sounds like it will be a little while until Ohtani is back on the mound, and he will continue to be shut down from pitching.
