TL;DR Summary

Los Angeles Angels' Shohei Ohtani will not pitch for the remainder of the season due to a tear in his UCL, according to Angels general manager Perry Minasian. Ohtani, who had Tommy John surgery in 2018, has been dealing with various minor ailments and arm fatigue recently. Despite the injury, the team hopes he can continue playing as a designated hitter. Ohtani's exceptional performance this season, both as a pitcher and hitter, has made him one of the best players in baseball, and he is expected to receive a lucrative contract in free agency this winter.
