LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers expect Shohei Ohtani to pitch again this season, but they’re not rushing the two-way superstar back to the mound because of concern about him overcompensating while his left knee heals. Andrew Friedman downplayed Ohtani’s right biceps soreness, too. “If it weren’t for the knee, he would be pitching right now,” Friedman said Wednesday. The team wants Ohtani’s knee to feel as good as possible before he begins a throwing program on flat ground or off a mound. Ohtani is 8-2 on the mound with a 1.79 ERA and 95 strikeouts over 85 2/3 innings.
