With the Dodgers making significant moves this offseason, including the return of Shohei Ohtani from Tommy John surgery, the excitement is palpable. Dave Roberts has expressed confidence that Ohtani will return as the same dominant pitcher he was before his injury. This raises some intriguing questions for us as fans and analysts of the game.

First, how do you think Ohtani's return will impact the Dodgers' rotation? If he truly comes back at full strength, could we be looking at one of the most formidable pitching staffs in recent history? With his impressive stats—an ERA of 3.01 and a WHIP of 1.061 over his career—what kind of expectations should we set for him this season?

Moreover, considering the Dodgers' recent roster revamp, do you believe they have positioned themselves as the team to beat in the National League? With the addition of other key players and the potential for young pitchers to step up, how do you see the Dodgers' chances of repeating their World Series success?

Lastly, let's talk about the long-term implications. If Ohtani performs as expected, what does that mean for his future with the Dodgers? Will he be a cornerstone of the franchise for years to come, or do you think the team might explore other options down the line?

Share your thoughts, bold predictions, and any experiences you've had watching Ohtani play. Let's dive deep into what could be a thrilling season for the Dodgers and their fans!
