Dodgers Weigh Ohtani's Possible Playoff Pitching
News summary

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts has not ruled out the possibility of Shohei Ohtani pitching in the 2024 postseason, despite the star player undergoing elbow surgery last September and not pitching this season. Ohtani has been limited to hitting and only recently started throwing bullpen sessions. The Dodgers are facing a pitching crisis with multiple injuries, including Tyler Glasnow's recent setback, prompting Roberts to consider all options. While the likelihood remains slim, Roberts emphasized leaving a 'crack in the door' for Ohtani's potential return to the mound if conditions align. Ohtani, on a record 10-year, $700 million contract, continues to excel offensively, adding to the allure of his possible pitching comeback.
