Shohei Ohtani is widely reported as unlikely to pitch in the July 14 MLB All-Star Game after the Los Angeles Dodgers adjust his pitching schedule. The All-Star Game is set for Philadelphia, where Dodgers manager Dave Roberts is scheduled to manage the National League team. Multiple outlets note that Ohtani’s pitching days would be shifted to July 3 and July 10. With the All-Star Game on July 14, that timeline would leave only three days of rest between his scheduled pitching outing and the game. Earlier coverage also describes Roberts as uncertain about whether Ohtani would pitch, reflecting concerns around rest and workload. At the same time, Ohtani is expected to appear in the All-Star lineup as the designated hitter rather than as a pitcher. One report states that, following the first phase of fan voting, Ohtani remains penciled in as the overall vote leader, supporting his expected role for the American League–leading star during the event.
