The Los Angeles Dodgers are preparing for Shohei Ohtani to take the mound on Monday evening, as the reigning National League MVP and creator of the 50/50 club is ready to once again pitch at an MLB level.
Ohtani has thrown three live bullpens over the last few weeks to mostly minor league hitters, Dalton Rushing, Hyeseong Kim, and even a member of the coaching staff.
