Jaime Barría will start Monday’s game against the Padres, while Ohtani will make a nationally televised appearance Tuesday.
ANAHEIM ― The cracked nail on Shohei Ohtani’s right middle finger hasn’t kept him out of the Angels’ starting lineup since the injury manifested in his start against the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday. To the contrary, he hit four home runs in four games to end the month of June.
Ohtani will now be opposed by San Diego Padres right-hander Joe Musgrove in the middle game of the three-game series. Angels right-hander Jaime Barría will start Monday against left-hander Blake Snell.Despite the injury, Ohtani allowed one run in 6 ⅓ innings in the Angels’ 4-2 win over Chicago. He threw 102 pitches in all ― effectively a normal start ― and said afterward that “I came out of the game before it got too bad.
For Barria, swapping places in the rotation with Ohtani offers him a quicker opportunity to rebound from his worst outing of the season. Barría allowed five runs in three innings Wednesday in the Angels’ 11-5 loss to the White Sox. He started on four days’ rest once this season and tossed five shutout innings against the Boston Red Sox on May 22.“I think is more effective when he’s out there more often,” Nevin said.
