Could Shohei Ohtani Return to Mound This Season? Dodgers GM Weighs In
Briefly

"Shohei Ohtani may be recovering quite nicely from his Tommy John surgery, but forget the notion of the Dodgers bringing him to the pitcher's mound this season. Simply, Dodgers GM Brandon Gomes said, it's not happening."
"In 2023, Ohtani injured his elbow ligament while he was still playing for the cross-town Angels in Anaheim. He left the mound after just 26 pitches and Halos general manager Perry Minasian confirmed Ohtani's injury later that night."
"Even though witnessing Ohtani on the mound in his first season with the Dodgers would've been amazing, the Los Angeles star has bigger fish to fry in 2024. The Dodgers' lead in the National League West is dwindling, and although Los Angeles could use another arm, what the club needs most is Ohtani's bat."
