Shohei Ohtani - May be limited as pitcher early on Ohtani may not be fully stretched out as a pitcher by Opening Day, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.
Impact Ohtani is fully expected to be part of Los Angeles' pitching rotation while fulfilling his usual DH duties from the get-go, but it's unclear how stretched out he'll be as a pitcher due to his participation with Samurai Japan during the World Baseball Classic, as he's slated to work exclusively as a hitter during that tournament. Should the two-way star not be ready to handle a full pitching workload right away, it's very possible that he'll have his pitch count capped until he's fully ramped up. In that scenario, Chen suggests that Justin Wrobleski or another long reliever could work in a piggyback role with Ohtani during the early part of the campaign.

Justin Wrobleski - Could begin season in rotation Wrobleski is a candidate to begin the campaign in Los Angeles' rotation if Blake Snell (shoulder) isn't ready to pitch by Opening Day, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.
Impact While Los Angeles' other five starters have already faced live hitters, Snell hasn't yet thrown from a mound this spring, so his readiness for Opening Day is considerably iffy. If Snell is sidelined early, Wrobleski is arguably the top candidate to fill a starting role should the Dodgers elect to deploy a six-man rotation. That in itself is uncertain, at least in the very early part of the campaign, since Los Angeles has two off-days across the first eight days of the season. Chen notes that if Wrobleski isn't inserted into the rotation right away, he could instead be called upon to work in a piggyback role with Shohei Ohtani, who may not be fully stretched out as a pitcher by Opening Day due to his anticipated participation solely as a hitter during the World Baseball Classic.

Brock Stewart - Targeting March for full bullpens Stewart (shoulder) recently began throwing off a mound to a standing catcher, and the Dodgers are aiming for him to progress to full bullpen sessions in early March, per MLB.com.
Impact Stewart continues to rehab from the right shoulder debridement procedure he underwent last September. The veteran reliever isn't expected to be ready for Opening Day, but if he doesn't encounter any setbacks, he could be part of Los Angeles' bullpen sometime during the first half of the campaign. When healthy, Stewart should have a chance to work his way up to high-leverage opportunities.
