Shohei Ohtani ready for spring training after shoulder surgery

Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani will be ready for spring training following a successful shoulder surgery. In a statement, the Dodgers explained that Los Angeles-based orthopedic surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who specializes in sports medicine, performed Ohtani's arthroscopic surgery to repair a labrum tear. The injury resulted from a partial dislocation of his left, non-throwing shoulder, as Ohtani bats left and throws right.
