Ohtani has not thrown a bullpen session since Feb. 25 and won’t “ramp back up” until closer to the start of the season. There is no specific timetable for his return to pitching in games.

The Dodgers are balancing Shohei Ohtani's pitching and hitting in camp this year for the first time. Last season, he was recovering from a serious elbow injury as a pitcher and this time around, he's getting ready to return to the mound while also juggling his return to the plate after offseason shoulder surgery.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts is not publicly committing to any timeline for Shohei Ohtani's return to the mound for the Dodgers.
