Despite swirling injury concerns, Shohei Ohtani’s chances to win the NL MVP appear unaffected, with prediction markets remaining firm on his MVP price. He's currently trading at 85%.
Ohtani is battling left knee inflammation and a blister on his pitching hand. The knee issue flared on June 11 against the Pittsburgh Pirates when he left early after a stolen-base attempt and missed the next game. He was forced to miss the June 12 game against the Chicago White Sox. His lingering blister was a concern in his most recent outing against the Tampa Bay Rays.
