"The previous offseason, just having to go to different facilities, appointments, rehabbing, just felt like every day the day passed by really quick. I just felt like I had a pretty easier offseason mentally."
"The Dodgers anticipate Ohtani to pitch regularly this year after his methodical build-up last season. The organization is much more comfortable with where the right-hander is physically compared to the beginning of last season."
Shohei Ohtani signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers and underwent Tommy John surgery, taking nearly two years to recover. His first bullpen session occurred on August 24, 2024, marking a significant step in his return as a two-way player. Ohtani's offseason preparation for the 2025 season was intense but successful, allowing him to pitch 67.1 innings without issues. The Dodgers are optimistic about his physical condition and expect him to pitch regularly, with Ohtani aiming for the Cy Young Award while prioritizing his health.
