Ohtani has not stopped throwing but the Dodgers want to manage his workload on the mound while he's also recovering from shoulder surgery.

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.

Breakout games are being played for the second consecutive year as the league looks to further highlight some of the sport’s top prospects across all 30 organizations.
