Ohtani is not in the lineup Sunday against the Mets, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

Ohtani's absence appears to be tied to the fact that the Angels seemingly don't want Mike Trout taking the field two days in a row immediately after a three-game absence due to groin tightness. Trout will fill the designated hitter spot Sunday, leaving no room for Ohtani.
