Ohtani is now not expected to start pitching in games again until after the MLB All-Star break, which will take place from July 14–17. According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the Los Angeles Dodgers plan to keep Ohtani from pitching until after the break, avoiding rushing him back as he is already putting up MVP-level production as a hitter.

After another highlight moment in a career already full of them, Shohei Ohtani earned a spot next to Barry Bonds on Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts' list of all-time great players.

Shohei Ohtani crushed a game-winning homer in the Los Angeles Dodgers’ comeback win over the Diamondbacks on Friday.
