Vlad wants to play for a winner and he is not encouraged by this joke of a front office.

[BobDeagle]

The Blue Jays haven't won one playoff game with Vlad Jr. To hell with him and move on.

[voidhelix]

Guerrero Jr straight up lied. He said his number didn't change because of Soto. That's clear bs. He needs to go now. Maximum value. It's just Kawhi without the ring. If the dude had EVER in 10 years had an interview in English or French it might be different. If your best player can't be bothered to communicate with his fans. What does that tell you? If Jr has a mid season he won't get more than $300m. His agent's a moron.

Do you think Vladdy should get paid more than Aaron Judge Hmmm

[tonydias]

I would give him max 12 years @ 35 millions no more
Last year he got all those great numbers after the team was out off contention,

[matthewattridge]

It’s almost as if you all overreacted when he didn’t sign and called the front office cheap.

Yes, the front office should be replaced. They have had their chance, it has not worked. But they are not wrong on this.

How are the viewers of this channel always 71% not subscribed & 29% subscribed? It never changes?

[ClayClaydol]

Given that Ohtani/Soto reset the marketplace, I'd say he's worth ~$487.5 million over 13 years in that economy.
Anything north of $500 is just an overpay. 🤷‍♂️

[haroldwelsh]

Vladdy may be a first baseman but he did win a gold glove and Juan Soto is a right fielder (not a premier position either) if the jay were willing to offer up to or close to $700 million for Soto, why so much less for arguably the best player ever to come out of Toronto system. he won the HR derby and almost won it his first time in it hitting the most total he's ever. everyone knows the talent is there. they should have locked him up after his 2021 season.

[Patrick-kos]

Vladdy made the statement that he wants to be a Blue Jay for life. If that’s true then if he doesn’t sign and goes somewhere else then so be it. Don’t make false statements and expect fans to be on your side. 550 million is too much money considering his inconsistency.

[dquarks]

At least he will play great this year to raise his value.

[philippelajeunesse]

Being from Montréal, Vlad is the reason why I travel every year to go see the jays. This team management is poor as they had a heck of a team not so long ago

[johnmackenzie]

I like Vlad but if he was asking for 500 or 550 he isn’t worth that much

[nathanchalmers]

The writing is on the wall it's pretty obvious vlad sees this team not being good due to the amount of guys leaving over the next couple of seasons..

[brianketelboeter]

I absolutely believe that to be true. Vladdy wants to go to FA. Jays would need to overpay to get him now

[andrewgibson]

Trade Vlad now and re sign Vlad cheap when Vlad realizes no one will pay a 1st baseman anywhere near what he’s asking

[Marcus-jbcp]

Could Ed Rogers have stepped in and been more assertive? Would it have helped?

[FootballMania]

Why you all surprised? We should have All known this was coming. They could have signed him before Soto, a good front office would have known that. Omg we even knew that. Bo is next, by next year this team will be torn down

[bigmac]

Would have been a clear overpay. But we try to overpay every other star to come here and they turn and go somewhere else every time. No one really wants to play in Toronto when there are other options.

[George-jow]

As a ex expo fan and huge Vlad fan this hurts a little, but to say its the front office fault is not fair and that they they should of signed him a long time ago false .lets look at the facts he 25 and you want to give him huge money untill 35 or 37 y.o is ridiculous , he never put in the work to get this kind of money or consecutive good seasons, what one great home run year and a bounce back season that meant zip in a down free agent year bye bye J.r better get on a diet quick, noone believe you going to in better shape the next 7 y than you were the last 7y, witch is why you were not signed in the first place chow .ps go jays go
