re: Is it time for Ohtani to shelve pitching and forget being a two way player?

It’s not going to happen. In fact, I won’t be shocked if he returns to the mound this year. Remember, Ohtani didn’t get Tommy John Surgery. He had an internal brace put in his elbow which has a much shorter recovery time than TJS. Rich Hill had the same procedure a few years ago and was able to return in ten months.
