I'm still not convinced Bo is gone. He was part of the group who tried to convince Sasaki to play here.  Those aren't the actions of someone who is unhappy with the club and/or wants out. I'm not saying he WILL resign, just that I don't think it's as unlikely as people seem to think.

Yeah Bo said publicly that he wants to remain with the Blue Jays long term. I think the hangup could actually be whether the front office wants to sign him to an extension vs Bo wanting to remain a Blue Jay based on his actual words.

The club will sign him to an extension if the financial terms are agreeable.

The Jays are in on everyone.  I don't see why that would change.

Probably a $100M gap between what Bo would accept and what Toronto would be willing to pay him right now

And Bo's been worth 1.1 more WAR per 600 PA than Vladdy... haha!

Let that sink in.

Full no trade clause....interesting.  Doesn't mean we can't trade him, but he'll obviously have to give his blessing.  Let's hope that becomes a consideration the Jays never have to contemplate this summer.

Yeah, it's just player protection and he basically would choose his best fit, but that'll be with Toronto, regardless. 😜

Nothing he ie beautiful. Just strap in and enjoy the ride every time he’s on the mound.
