Shohei Ohtani Will Pitch but Not Hit in Tuesday’s Start

CONFIRMED

Shohei Ohtani will take the mound Tuesday but won’t be in the lineup as a hitter, per Fabian Ardaya at The New York Times. We already knew Ohtani was moving up to Tuesday’s start with Tyler Glasnow getting extra rest — now we know the Dodgers are keeping the bat out of his hands for this one. It’s the second straight start where Ohtani has been pitch-only, which suggests the front office is still managing his overall workload carefully. Not alarming, but I’m watching how long this stays the plan.
