Dodgers Postpone Shohei Ohtani Bullpen Session

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

The Los Angeles Dodgers have delayed a scheduled bullpen session for Shohei Ohtani due to what manager Dave Roberts described as 'regression' in his knee. Despite the setback, Roberts remains confident that Ohtani will pitch again this season.

The planned bullpen session was set for Saturday but has been postponed after Ohtani experienced a downturn in his recovery from knee surgery. Manager Dave Roberts did not specify the nature of the regression, only noting it prompted the decision to delay the pitching practice.

Despite this setback, Roberts emphatically stated that he still expects Ohtani to return to the mound before the end of the 2024 season. “I still believe he’s going to pitch for us this year,” Roberts said, according to Yahoo Sports. The Dodgers have been cautious with Ohtani's recovery since he underwent ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction in September 2023.
