2024 designated hitter rankings: Shohei Ohtani now rules the NL

It used to be no fantasy manager wanted to lock up a utility spot with a player who had no other defensive position. But that was before the days of Shohei Ohtani. You make room for that kind of talent.
Ohtani has switched leagues this season, moving to the NL with the Dodgers. And while he won't be doing anything other than hitting in 2024, several current DH-only players (who didn't appear at any position for at least 20 games in 2023) could lose those shackles this season. Once they do, Byron Buxton, Heston Kjerstad and Tyler Soderstrom will see their fantasy values rise.
