ESPN’s Buster Olney Asked Angels Manager About Shohei Ohtani Trade During Game and Fans Weren't Happy
The Angels and Astros took the field for Sunday Night Baseball. During the game, Buster Olney conducted a live interview with manager Phil Nevin from the Angels’ dugout.
The ESPN reporter asked him some questions, including prodding about a potential Shohei Ohtani trade amid the recent increase in speculation over the two-way superstar’s future in Anaheim.
“Really with him it hasn’t come up. It’s all business. We’re focused on winning baseball games right now and getting back to where we were a couple weeks ago and hopefully those rumors go away again,” said Nevin in response to a question from Olney.
Some fans weren’t happy with Olney, suggesting it wasn’t fair for the reporter to ask the Angels manager about a trade involving the best player in baseball in the middle of an ongoing game.
