Shohei Ohtani Won't Pitch This Weekend
Shohei Ohtani will not pitch in the team's series against the San Francisco Giants this weekend. Ohtani had been penciled in to start on Friday, but he won't take the mound again until next week in a series against the Philadelphia Phillies, per Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register. The Dodgers are continuing to ease the two-way superstar back in as a pitcher in his return from September 2023 Tommy John surgery. Ohtani has made 12 starts (none more than five innings) and gone 1-1 with a 3.75 ERA, a 1.19 WHIP, and 49:8 K:BB over 36 frames this season. With Ohtani's next outing pushing back, the Dodgers will roll with Yoshinobu Yamamoto (Friday), Clayton Kershaw (Saturday), and Tyler Glasnow (Sunday) as their starters versus the Giants.
