Ohtani can speak English, but isn't very confident and is unsophisticated with it's use.
He's given enough off-the-cuff unprepared short speeches and interviews in English to tell he's got somewhat of a grasp of the language. He probably doesn't want to sound like a caveman trying to give thoughtful responses to things.
