Los Angeles Angels star Shohei Ohtani is not in the starting lineup Monday after suffering a groin injury, while his scheduled pitching start on Tuesday will also be pushed back, the team announced Monday (via ESPN's Jesse Rogers).
Ohtani was removed from the Angels' game against the Chicago White Sox on Sunday and the team later announced that he was experiencing right groin tightness.
Trainer Mike Frostad said removing him from the last game was "more as a precaution than anything," but added the timeline is up in the air.
"We'll have to see how it plays out over the next couple of days," Frostad said.
