Staying in leadoff spot Dodgers manager Dave Roberts confirmed that Ohtani will remain the team's leadoff hitter during the 2026 season, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Impact For the first time since his final season with the Angels in 2023, Ohtani is preparing for a full season of pitching, but that doesn't look like it will affect the Dodgers' approach with him as their everyday designated hitter. After slugging a career-high 55 home runs while making 148 of his 158 starts out of the leadoff spot during the 2025 regular season, the four-time MVP will continue to set the table for Los Angeles once again. Per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic, Ohtani is expected to start at DH in the Dodgers' first two Cactus League games this weekend to get some competitive at-bats in before he joins Team Japan in advance of the World Baseball Classic. Roberts has already said that Ohtani won't pitch for Japan in the WBC, but the two-way phenom will likely continue to build up through bullpen and live batting practice sessions throughout the spring to ensure that he'll be part of the Dodgers' Opening Day rotation.
