Shohei Ohtani says his return to pitching remains uncertain because, in addition to his knee injury, he is dealing with a biceps problem. According to reports, Ohtani tells reporters that his biceps is “not 100 percent,” describing it as a similar issue to the knee. The comments indicate that the condition of the biceps is affecting his ability to resume pitching on a set schedule, extending the timeline that has already been delayed by the earlier knee-related setback. The reports present the biceps issue as another complicating factor rather than a replacement explanation, with Ohtani still working through recovery and evaluating how his body responds during the process. While the outlets differ in emphasis, both attribute the continued uncertainty to ongoing physical limitations and quote Ohtani directly through his interpreter.
