"Ohtani has made two starts for the Dodgers this season, both lasting just one inning, and he won't pitch in the All-Star Game."
"Dave Roberts stated, 'I think we're always gonna be cautious...I don't even know what that's going to look like, to be 'fully built-up'."
Los Angeles Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani has been named the starting designated hitter for the National League in the upcoming All-Star Game after being the leading vote-getter. Although Ohtani is known for being a two-way player, Dodgers' manager Dave Roberts confirmed he will only play as a hitter, not as a pitcher. The team is cautious with Ohtani's pitching recovery, limiting his starts and focusing on a careful return to the mound, as he continues to adapt after previous injuries.
