DigitalRock Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 So in all seriousness and to get back on topic. Is Vlad going to eat the team provided food under the guidance of a nutritionist or is his Grandma going to follow him around filling him up with carbs? Got to love the old people shaming /s.
glory Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 I'll believe it when I see it. Has a future elite player ever been treated this like? I don't mean held back for service time reasons, that happens a lot, but held back even after the service time limit has passed? Seriously guys, he's yours for 2025. That was the whole point of this. Bring his ass to Oakland and play him on the big league team already.

Brownie19 Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Bobcat said those rumors are false - and Bob's old.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Wow... Jeff Blair was right, colour me surprised.
Omar Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Enough Atkins! Pick up the phone and make the call.......not tonite, not tomorrow, not next week............NOW!
Bobthe4th Old-Timey Member Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 close the thread And ban OP, unforgivable! /s
Captain Adama Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 There is no defensible excuse for him not to get called up now or in the very near future. The Jays got their 7th year, bring him the f*** up already.

I've never seen a front office so determined to not call up their young superstar even after they got the extra year of control. Vlad was ready for the Majors last year. It's bad enough they made him wait for 2019 (which is understandable given the rules), but now they have to prolong it even longer because......reasons. It's ********.

Terminator Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Let's try and win some games and put the best team on the field. The pitching has been a pleasant surprise we have a chance to be better than everyone thought. Plus, Brandon Drury sucks ass. If they are that hellbent on playing him he can play some 2B.

The best lineup is Vlad at 3rd, Bo at 2nd and Alford in center.
Carlos Danger Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 The best lineup is Vlad at 3rd, Bo at 2nd and Alford in center. Disagree. Biggio 2b, Bo SS, Alford CF, Vlad 3b 😁
Maico450 Verified Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Disagree. Biggio 2b, Bo SS, Alford CF, Vlad 3b 😁 I can visualize the wailing that is going to appear on this forum after Vlad botches a few plays at 3B.
Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Disagree. Biggio 2b, Bo SS, Alford CF, Vlad 3b 😁 And in a couple of years it'll be Alford CF, Biggio LF, Groshans 3B, Bichette SS, Lopez 2B, Vladdy 1B
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 And in a couple of years it'll be Alford CF, Biggio LF, Groshans 3B, Bichette SS, Lopez 2B, Vladdy 1B Where's Smith and Tellez, traded?
Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Where's Smith and Tellez, traded? DH for Tellez. Super Utility IF for Smith.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 DH for Tellez. Super Utility IF for Smith. Geez... imagine if they all worked out, lol.
Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Geez... imagine if they all worked out, lol. 2-3 will work out. 2-3 will be dealt. 2-3 will never reach their potential. I think that's the best we can hope for.
Carlos Danger Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 I can visualize the wailing that is going to appear on this forum after Vlad botches a few plays at 3B. Everyone here knows he will not stick at 3b. However, everyone also knows we are going to go through the motions and start him/give him an opportunity there.
EastCoaster Verified Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 I don't know if this will happened Tuesday as predicted but he will be called up sooner than later Guerrero has nothing left to prove at the AAA level he's one of the game purest hitter and all indication are that he will continue at the big league level. Now the Blue Jays has to make some roster move first to the 40 man roster where likely someone will have to be released. Travis and Pompey are safe cause there not on the 40 man roster and they're injured no player can be traded or release while injured. Then there's also has to be a move from the active roster Guerrero is an infielder the likely candidate to be removed is Rowdy Tellez who has options who is listed as an infielder. Drury is not going anywhere he's backup to 3rd base Smoak, Galvis and Sogard are regulars. In the last 7 games Tellez has an avg of .118 he had some success at first but the league has adjusted to him they know exactly how to pitch him. The Blue Jays will give that spot to Vlad Guerrero jr 3rd base and DH for days he not playing 3rd base. The waiting game is on for baseball most anticipated prospect.

If Hanson isn't the one removed from both the 40 and 25 man, there's a serious issue here.
DigitalRock Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 I can visualize the wailing that is going to appear on this forum after Vlad botches a few plays at 3B. Nah pretty sure this board knows he is a work in progress on D.
