The Los Angeles Dodgers are currently slowing down Shohei Ohtani's throwing program to allow him to focus on his hitting performance as the season approaches. Ohtani last threw a bullpen on February 25, and there is no set date for his next session. Dodgers' manager Dave Roberts explained that intensifying both bullpens and games was not wise. Ohtani stated he is satisfied with the decision, aiming for better mental and physical balance as he ramps up as a designated hitter before Opening Day.
Ohtani emphasized the importance of prioritizing hitting while he takes a break from pitching to ease both mental and physical demands.
Roberts confirmed that Ohtani’s decision to slow down his pitching program was mutually agreed upon, focusing on a balanced approach to his training.
