Post your prediction on the date of the call-up, as well as the time of day the story will break (tiebreaker).

 

I'm going to say he gets called up on Sunday April 14 to join the team in Minnesota for his debut on Monday April 15. Story breaks at 2 pm on April 12 so Bucko can announce it during the broadcast.

Considering he isn't even playing back to back games in Dunedin right now I'm going to say May 16th in Chicago.

Sorry but it Really should not be this Year

Or till when the call ups at the End of the year

 

Or until he loses 25 to 30 pounds and hires or the jays get him a nutritionist ! Protect him from himself , and a asset and in extending his career and life !

 

Tell him simple and straight we want you to be and become the best you and have a long career and then say reality is if we do not do this now we are hurting you and not doing the best for you!

 

Vlad until you lose 25-30 pounds with are help of course , you will have to stay down

Till you do and how soon you get called up is now fully on you and us working to get you there , but it starts first with you .. you have to want it and do it for you !!!

I think it will certainly be on that road trip, if not in Minny.

I agree wholeheartedly with this sentiment. As a fan I was quite disappointed and discouraged at the shape Vlad arrived in this year so I can only imagine what the FO thought of their blue chip/generational talent’s commitment to being the best player he can be.

 

Vlad’s weight has taken some of the lustre off of him as the next big thing for me. Unquestionably if he doesn’t take fitness seriously it’ll impact his ability to stay on the field and stay productive.

"Hi Vladdy. You're too fat for major league ball. Ride the buses in AAA and eat a salad if you want to be called up. M'Kay? Bye."

April 15th 2021. Then we have his age 22 through 28 seasons. And he doesn't lose the weight too fast.

 

April May 2019 - Plays every second day in Dunnedin, works with a team of Dietitians and Psychologists to address the route causes of his obesity.

June 2019 - Takes a month off to work with Scott Rolen (hired as special instructor) on 3b defense, and also speaks with new draftees on dangers of overeating.

July 2019 - Re-acquainted with New Hampshire.

August 2019 - Re-acquainted with Buffalo

 

Winter 2019/2020 - Placed in special "Fat Camp" type setting to avoid showing up in camp at 280 again

 

2020 - Spends entire year in Buffalo. This is decided before hand so they can make a lot promotions around him. Buffalo bans all junk food from stadium. Scott Rolen hired as infield instructor.

 

April 15th 2021 - The Toronto Star, Rogers Sportnett, Subway Sandwhiches (Vladdy is the new Jared), and the Toronto Blue Jays present -- Vladimir Guerrero Jr. A well deserved mlb debut, once a fat boy now a true man.

I don,t know if you really want Vlad spending to much more time in Buffalo, he is already shaped like a chicken wing, and I can only see that getting worse
