Eye approves of this message.

This is the Vlad card I'm jealous of. No Yordan equivalent. Such a beautiful card.

If Bregman can get $40 mil a year, Vlad deserves a billion-dollar contract.

Hell, that Bregman signing might just bode well for Vlad if Boston comes knocking next offseason.

Boston won’t pay up again. If Vlad hits free agency he will be going to the Yankees

That's a weird way to spell the Dodgers.

I've been saying this too. If the Jays don't lock him up, he's going to Boston. Everyone's cards to the moon, then.

Or the Mets. Cohen has no budget. He could give him the same deal as Soto if he wants to.

For sure, but that NL MVP Award is just out of reach with Ohtani and Soto in the NL. I'm certain that's on his mind.

Until Judge regresses which could happen any year, the AL MVP is as well.

Boston just paid Devers and gave Bregman a 3-year (Op-out after year 1 though) deal, the likely hood of Henry shelling out another 5+ year deal over $300 million is slim to non.

In the Toronto-sphere of baseball, the jays and Vlad failed to agree on a contract extension.

Vlad has said he doesn't want to negotiate in-season, and that the Jays will be competing with 29 other teams for his services moving forward.

Heyman already licking his chops at the free clicks by suggesting a top 3 destination for Vlad after this season, which is available for the cost of your soul if you wish to look up his twitter account.

disgrunted jays fan

Somehow the Jays just get more and more depressing.

So what do they do now? Trade Vlad and Bo as soon as they can? Or in typical Jays fashion, mess things up even more by hanging onto them and letting them walk for nothing.

Most likely the latter.

I think the idea should be to move Casas & Mayer for Vlad, but now it will be interesting to see who offers the most next offseason.

According to a report by Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the Dominican slugger has told his friends that if he reaches free agency, he'd love to play for the Boston Red Sox.

That all changes if the Devers squabble doesn't get resolved.

Zero percent chance Vlady Jr was going to sign before hitting Free Agency.

Bregman has an opt out after one year. No was they upset the franchise guy who has 8 years left on his contract for the guy who will likely be gone after one year. Raffy knows that. Bregman will move to 2B.

The problem is he's a zero at 3B at this point in his career. If he cared about winning he'd put his pride aside and maybe he still will do that at some point. If he just accepted the full time DH role he'd probably be available more then he been the last few seasons and he probably hits 40+ HR not having to worry about playing the field.

I've been saying this to everyone. He says he wants to stay in Toronto and I believe him, but testing free agency establishes his true value. I think he'll test the market and then circle back to Toronto and say "here are my offers, what can YOU do now?".

There was nothing in my mind that made me think he was going to sign before free agency. I hoped he would, I didn't think he would. He's going to do what Aaron Judge did and if he doesn't stay in Toronto, he goes to Boston.

Hi Vlad Guys.

Can we say Yordan and Vlad have equal career WAR projections?

Thanks,
Yordan Guy

Only way he would have signed is if they would have offered him a Soto contract, and that wasn’t going to happen.
