Fantasy Impact:

Ohtani has expressed a desire to remain a two-way player this season, and his velocity this early in Spring is an encouraging sign in his favor. He made just two starts in 2020 before being shut down with a forearm strain. He struggled mightily in those 1.2 innings, walking eight and allowing seven earned runs.
