Shohei Ohtani's Injury Impact on Free Agency and Beyond

Shohei Ohtani, the Los Angeles Angels' two-way superstar, returned to the lineup as a designated hitter after tearing his ulnar collateral ligament and ending his season as a pitcher. Ohtani hit a double and walked three times in the Angels' win against the New York Mets. It remains uncertain whether he will undergo a second Tommy John surgery, but he plans to seek a second opinion. Ohtani's injury has raised questions about his future as a free agent, but his teammate Mike Trout believes he will continue as a two-way player.
