Shohei Ohtani likely to start on Sunday against Twins

Ohtani had been starting on Sundays mostly, but a sprained ankle threw things off and caused him to miss a little more time between starts two weeks ago. He last pitched against the Mariners on Sunday and picked up the win. This would get him back on the Sunday schedule.
The Angels are 21-13 this season. Ohtani is 3-1 with a 4.10 ERA as a pitcher. He’s batting .339 with a 1.018 OPS as a hitter.
