The 2025 Toronto Blue Jays
- Thread starter Toronto Passions
- Start date
This is true. It's because you post one after the other after the other after the other without speaking for yourself. It hurts your credibility.
That makes no sense. You are claiming that he can only make the HoF if he stays with the Jays. Even you know that that is not the case. How many teams did his dad play for? 3, 4, 5?
2 home runs for Ault. Years later he committed suicide.
It seems that the tree was on an incline and the apple rolled far away from the tree.
I heard Shi Davidi saying that whenever he's interviewed Vladdy, he seems sincere about wanting to stay here. Not giving a home town discount is different than trying to price himself out of the city.

Yes..Yankee fans don't care for him much...One of the richest teams in Baseball and they haven't won anything in years.
Honestly though what would you expect him to say?..Soto was raving about the Yankees last year right up until they lost to the Dodgers then it was I'll wait and see what the others offers are, lol...
Toronto Blue Jays' spring training statistics, (all players)
Hitting
Pitching
I don't attach a lot of significance to spring training stats. They ARE important for those players who are fighting for a bench position or to be part of the back end of the bullpen, but they don't matter for anyone else. It can be deceiving when a known stiff like Myles Straw is batting .458 with a 1.129 OPS in a 24 at bat sample. What you can't tell from that is whether or not he did that damage against minor league pitchers, or Major Leaguers who weren't using their 'game stuff'. Some significance ought to be applied to starting pitchers' last one or two starts of the spring, or when older players are performing significantly above or below expectations.
Some years ago, a guy named Mike Laga had a huge spring, possibly leading MLB in spring training home runs. He never hit more than three for any one team in any regular season.
There was, however, another guy who went yard repeatedly in the spring of 1990, following his under-the-radar signing following a single season in Japan, after playing approximately one full season of at bats over four Major League seasons. His name was Cecil Fielder, and he went on to hit 51HRs for the 1990 Tigers.

Manoah throws for the first time since last May. He thinks he may be able to join the team in the second half of the season. Hmmmmm......

This is pre-season. It means nothing. Right, mitchy? It's the regular season that counts.
21 was covid year and jays played in a small park so it does not count
One great year and Vlad thinks he is Judge and Vlad is a first base man and that is where teams
put power hitters who cannot play anywhere else
I would not sign him for half a billion
trade him and let someone else do it
If jays are out of it at deadline he will be worth something along with Bo and a few pitchers
We will get twice the haul of last year deadline so I kinda hope they lose
Gotta think of the future

He is a quality fifth starter which is OK as they are impotant to eat innings
but he will be part time with his injuries
That was known coming in
We may not get any quality innings out of him. At best a quality part time fifth starter

I agree and I suspect it is his greedy agent that talked Vlad him into bring so greedy
Half a billion like WTF!!! You turn it down? What if you lose your timing? What if you get injured? You have just lost half a billion??
What is another few million????????? WTF do you need it for??????? In a conservative index fund 500,000,000 times 6% is 30 million a year and you have not touched the principle
I know it is not that much as taxes will be huge and most of that money is deferred and there is inflation eating away at the principle
but fuck me Vlad is thinking with his dick
I don't know if this report is true, but if it is, it shows that Shapeero is finally seeing what 90% of the baseball world sees.
Report: Blue Jays set to offer a 14-15 year deal worth $550 to $600 million to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
Or one could ask, what is $3.5M/yr to a company as large as Rogers especially when you risk losing your credibility with the fan base, decreased attendance, decreased stadium sales, merchandising, viewership and the resultant lower advertising rates?
Why do you criticize a guy who is willing to bet on himself AND assume the risk.
They most definitely will not if the team does poorly and he is clearly their best player.
