Not without another big renovation i would imagine. Not only would they have to run all the piping, they would have to dig down a ways in the concrete to make room for all the dirt and whatnot.

I don't watch baseball but even from just being in the sports hemisphere I know Ohtani is a white whale of a player. And even just the idea that a white whale would choose Toronto over any other city is a massively massive big deal.
Ppl have been asking for a hockey or Flames related perspective on this and best I could come up with was OV freely signing with CGY. Or that in terms of what kind of player Ohtani is is like MacKinnon who can also play goalie as good as a top 10 goalie in the league.
This is a pretty monumental situation.
Not for nothing but I miss the pre social media days where something like this could only be a surprise one things were official and then the gravity of it could only be emphasized by how big the print was on the front page of the newspaper the day after or being the top story on the regular news, not just sports news.

the flight is almost over Milwaukee. Chances he fakes a medical emergency and signs with the Brewers?

Sports Illustrated is reporting he has signed with Jays. Looks like their source is Dodgers reporter that has already been referenced

It's the most tracked flight on 24 Flight radar. 4800 people tracking the flight. And it's probably not even him on the flight.

It looks like they let fans write on SI now, though, so not sure it has a ton of weight.

What does Kikuchi get if he is the reason, or part of why, Ohtani signs?

So what's the deal with his pitching again? He won't pitch in '24 but should be good for '25?

One thing we should discuss is, if he ends up on the Jays what his pitching schedule would be. I think Anaheim did a six-man rotation because he was more used to the longer rest days like there are in Japan.
