Really impressed with Vlad this year (how could you not be). He looks like a completely different player.
Already up to 1.0 WAR after 13 games this year, after totalling 0.6 over 183 games his first two seasons.
Dude looks legit terrifying at the plate right now.
I can't speak knowledgeably about those Steib games as I was just a youngster but I did find this:

That infield could get pretty crowded pretty quick with Kim AND Lindor (not a bad thing). Bo/Vlad/Cavan/Rowdy/Lindor/Kim.
I guess in that scenario it's Vlad/Rowdy at 1b/dh, Bo at 2b, Kim at 3b and Cavan to lf.
Yeah, a Lindor extension would definitely need to be in place to give up any of the three. Crazy that Lindor is actually younger than both LGJ and Teo and only a year and a half older than Biggio. Feels like Frankie has been around forever. He's an absolute perfect fit on this team though and I actually feel like the Jays are gonna get him. I think LGJ is the main piece going the other way though. Cleveland is gonna love that contract and they've apparently expressed interest before.
