    I freaking hope so because those things are absolutely brutal. They would win the worst city connect jersey. A 1/10 for spelling Toronto right and that’s about it
  2. L54
    Best of luck
  3. L54
    That would’ve been awesome

    The hat isn’t terrible

    I think this is f***ing terrible Put them in Tim Hortons uniforms instead Why would the Nike swoosh be yellow outlined in red? McDonald’s vibes

    Mid to high end guys. George Springer, Russell Martin, Kevin Gausman Not Geritt Cole, Juan Soto, etc

    Wouldn’t touch Bichette either tbh. I’d trade him before the deadline this year

    Exactly how I feel Hopefully a revamped coaching staff at some point Vlad is like a puppy. Not very smart but loyal. He probably thinks he’s on the path to the Level of Excellence. Lifetime Blue Jay

    I think he’s laughing at signing JT has led to Vogelbach taking DH at bats away from him in May

    My view is this. Vlad is not a smart dude. His baseball IQ is below average. He is more athletic than given credit for but he’s not a great one Despite all this he’s been a pretty good hitter. And he’s one adjustment away from being a .300 30 HR guy. To me he’s a prime candidate to get better as he mentally matures and not only understands what opponents are trying to do but can digest information from coaches as well

    I think Soto is even less likely than Ohtani. Ohtani was a special circumstance where there were only a few true players. With Soto there will be at least double the suitors lining up to pay him 47M a year
  12. L54
    My point is this If Vlad played for the St. Louis Cardinals and had a 130 wrc+ and a red statcast page everyone and their mother would be looking at him as a FA target in 2026 And there aren’t a ton of FA targets to throw money at Soto, Bregman next year Tucker, Albies, Naylor, Vlad, Bo in 2026

    3-4 WAR is worth like 30M You have to pay somebody at some point. Signing Soto to give you 7 WAR for 50M isn’t a whole lot different than signing Vlad to give you 3 WAR for 25M
  14. L54
    Nope, it is not good. There are no reinforcements coming. I thought Barger actually looked good. Horwitz is Lyle Overbay lite, Orelvis might be okay. Good thing Davis Schneider appeared out of thin air
  15. L54
    True, I guess I just meant in a super aggressive way. Hard to say I didn’t realize either of those about his speed but it doesn’t surprise me. I do think he’s underrated athletically. His baseball IQ is just low and he makes bad decisions He’s only 25 though. Makes me think he can become better with age as he becomes more mature. And I’ve criticized Vlad for being immature before
  16. L54
    It really is. Opt outs for sure. I think youre looking at 7/140M as the starting point with an opt out after year 3 or 4
  17. L54
    The thing with Vladdy is over the course of the next two off seasons who is available via FA to add long term. The obvious answer is Soto but that’s like a 5% shot Who else would you want to kickstart a rebuild around? Yes Vlad was cheeks last year but he’s rebounded well so far and is on a 3 WAR pace. He’s been a durable so far and I think his athleticism is underrated for as big as he is Kyle Tucker is also a FA but he will certainly cost more than Vlad If you’re not going to sign someone to build around you might as well go scorched earth. And there’s no way Atkins survives the entire contract of an extended Vlad, so at some point there will be new hitting dudes around
  18. L54
    Whenever Vlad signs his big deal it will be interesting to see how he’s valued. He might get to FA and no team wants to give him more than like 4/80M. Or someone like Preller might give him an Eric Hosmer deal

    Acuna is done for the year
  21. L54
    What? He’d be better than Vlad
  22. L54
    Romano for Prime Minister

    Sell Kikuchi before he gets hurt. You can get a legit piece back for him
  25. L54
    It’s the darn BABIP luck
