Shohei Ohtani Likely To Pitch Once A Week
4 years agoWith Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Shohei Ohtani pitching once a week, manager Joe Maddon said it's likely that the Angels use a modified six-man starting rotation this year. Andrew Heaney, Dylan Bundy and Griffin Canning are locks for the rotation, with Matt Andriese and Felix Pena the front-runners for the two open spots. Jaime Barria is competing for a spot, with Patrick Sandoval arriving to camp on Thursday. They could use off days to switch back to a five-man rotation when necessary. Right-hander Julio Teheran and lefties Dillon Peters and Jose Suarez haven't arrived to camp yet, so they're obviously behind. In a shortened season and with an expanded rotation, all of the Halos starters will be slightly less attractive from a fantasy standpoint.
