Shohei Ohtani is expected to return to the Los Angeles Dodgers’ lineup on Wednesday after spending time on the injured list. Both outlets report that the club is preparing to have him back in action following the IL stint.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts is also cited in the coverage, saying Ohtani is “considerably” better. The reporting frames the return as a positive step in his recovery, without detailing additional injury specifics. The articles present the same core development—the timing of Ohtani’s return and the manager’s assessment of his condition—while keeping the focus on his readiness rather than on any broader team implications or alternative interpretations.
