The occurrence of a split doubleheader between the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees puts a shift in the future of the Dodgers' pitching plans. 

More specifically regarding Shohei Ohtani. 

According to Katie Woo of The Athletic, Dave Roberts announced that Ohtani will not be making his next scheduled start on Wednesday against the Philadelphia Phillies. 

This is in response to the lack of recovery in Ohtani's knee whenever he pitches, a recurring theme this season.
