Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Ohtani is expected to make his next start as a pitcher Sunday versus the Astros, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Ohtani made his third start this past Saturday against the Royals, tossing two scoreless innings and 27 pitches as an opener. He could build up to three or four innings Sunday, but Justin Wrobleski is in line to work in bulk relief behind him and will be the Dodgers pitcher most likely to qualify for a win that day.
