Shohei Ohtani Declined Angels' Offer for Testing Prior to UCL Tear

TL;DR Summary
Los Angeles Angels general manager Perry Minasian revealed that Shohei Ohtani and his camp declined testing on his arm prior to the imaging that revealed his torn UCL. Ohtani will not pitch for the rest of the season, and it is unclear whether he will require surgery. Despite the injury, Ohtani returned to the Angels' lineup as a designated hitter. The Angels' decision not to insist on earlier testing has raised questions and could potentially impact their relationship with Ohtani, who is a pending free agent.
