The article discusses Shohei Ohtani's expected comeback from two major surgeries, highlighting the skepticism typically associated with such recoveries for other athletes. However, many believe Ohtani will continue his impressive performance, as evidenced by comments from Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman. Ohtani's past resilience, including playing shortly after a shoulder injury during the World Series, supports this optimism. The article contrasts his situation with that of other players whose careers were significantly affected by similar injuries, emphasizing the unique capabilities of Ohtani.
When you pop your shoulder out like he did and you tear something, you usually can't raise your arm above your head. I watched him walk in on a workout day in New York and raise his arm completely over his head.
Ohtani underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum. The operation was performed by the same doctor who twice repaired his right elbow, Dr. Neal ElAttrache.
