The Dodgers are scheduled to begin spring training play today against the Chicago Cubs at their Camelback Ranch training facility in Glendale, Arizona, but without Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman.
The two-way sensation threw his third bullpen session of Spring Training on Saturday, reaching 95 mph on his fastball. He also increased his pitch count to 25, throwing only two-seam and four-seam fastballs along with cutters, according to the Orange County Register.
The Dodgers are hopeful that the real challenge for Shohei Ohtani this year won’t be about his health, but rather his process of re-acclimating to the two-way role that made him a superstar.
Two-way star Shohei Ohtani did not play in either of LA's first two Spring Training games, and he was again absent from the lineup on Saturday against the Kansas City Royals. The 2024 National League MVP served exclusively as LA's designated hitter last season, but has been throwing bullpens in preparation for a return to the mound.
The Dodgers have the Roki Sasaki and Shohei Ohtani collaboration to look forward too, prompting a huge vision from Andrew Friedman.
Ben Verlander called out TMZ for recording Shohei Ohtani struggling to park his car in a recent video. Here's what the analyst had to say.
