Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Shohei Ohtani was slated to start post-All-Star break but experienced discomfort while throwing, prompting a reevaluation of his schedule. Manager Dave Roberts emphasized the need for caution, prioritizing Ohtani’s health over immediate pitching needs, as he also serves as the team’s top hitter. Ohtani boasts a 1.79 ERA in 14 starts this season, ranking high among MLB pitchers. Meanwhile, ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s recent complete game win greatly benefited the team’s bullpen.
