Shohei Ohtani is set to pitch for the Angels in Oakland — assuming he can get to the ballpark on time. Los Angeles’ two-way star was supposed to take the ball Thursday, but manager Joe Maddon scratched the right-hander after an accident on the Bay Bridge snarled traffic. The team bus carrying Ohtani wasn’t able to get through, and Ohtani experienced another delay when he tried to take a Bay Area Rapid Transit train. Also, the Mets may need to reassess their rotation after learning that right-hander Noah Syndergaard won’t throw for at least six weeks due to inflammation in his right elbow.
