Ohtani threw a 40-pitch bullpen session Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Ohtani's velocity reportedly reached 85 mph Saturday, the highest number he's hit since undergoing Tommy John surgery last October. The 25-year-old also threw breaking balls for the first time since the surgery, saying that it was a good sign because his curveball hurt his elbow the most before the injury.
