About this listen
Does Shohei Ohtani deserve extra time to warm up on the mound? Fares and Suge debate it after George Springer approached the home plate umpire during Wednesday's Dodgers-Blue Jays series finale to question the amount of warmup time Ohtani was given. With Ohtani batting leadoff AND starting on the mound, the umpires have been granting him extra time to transition between roles — but is that fair to the opposing team?
This isn't the first time Toronto has had a problem with it either. The Blue Jays raised the same complaint during the 2025 World Series.
Fares and Suge break down both sides: is this just the reality of having a true two-way player in the game, or is baseball bending the rules for its biggest star?
