One of the most exciting events of 2025 for the Los Angeles Dodgers will be when superstar Shohei Ohtani makes his two-way debut. However, after Ohtani injured his shoulder in Game 2 of the World Series, his timeline to return to the mound was pushed back.
Ohtani told Bob Nightengale of USA Today he should be ready to pitch again in April.
“So far, so good,” Ohtani said in English. “Everything is going well.”
Though Ohtani’s recovery is going well, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said it is “very unlikely” Ohtani will pitch in the Tokyo series against the Chicago Cubs to open the season.
