Los Angeles Angels starter Shohei Ohtani continues to make progress in his rehab from Tommy John surgery that kept him off the mound for the entire 2019 season, according to general manager Billy Eppler who provided an update on the two-star to MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM.
Ohtani is allowed to continue to use team facilities during his recovery process, despite the strict quarantine measures taken by MLB.
“He’s been able to throw bullpens. He’s thrown roughly two a week,” Eppler said. “Nothing super intense. More in the 35-pitch domain. Probably throwing at about 80-85 percent.
