Angels’ manager Kurt Suzuki told reporters on Friday that the club is still awaiting the MRI results on the injured shoulder of left-hander Yusei Kikuchi.

Kikuchi was sent for imaging after being pulled from Wednesday’s start in the third inning due to soreness in his shoulder. They should know the results in the next day or so, after which they can make a determination on Kikuchi’s status. It looks increasingly likely that he’ll require a trip to the injured list.
