Shohei Ohtani: A pitcher as well as batter.
Shohei Ohtani is the All-Star DH. Will he pitch too?

Shohei Ohtani’s incredible plays are already breaking the internet. If he could be sent out to pitch in the all-star game then no one can stop MLB Twitter from creating history. With a 3.69 ERA and a K/9 rate of 12.45, he is an amazing starter pitcher. However, it is difficult to fit in Ohtani as a pitcher in an all-star game. Getting Ohtani to pitch would in all likelihood require a rule change.

I see the two sides to this. Toward one side, the guidelines are the principles. On the other, each baseball fan would appreciate watching Shohei Ohtani go out there and do his thing as a two-way player. I am also waiting for that mesmerizing moment and I hope that this will surely happen. The all-star games are all about revealing the best of bests therefore, they must change some rules for making it an Ohtani show.
