Yeah, I mean, I'm sure the Jays were happy with the way that his bat has sort of come alive, and they moved him out of the leadoff spot.
He was never going to be a leadoff hitter for anybody.
I'm surprised they haven't played him a few games in the outfield just to showcase that he can still play out there and maybe have a team that needs, like the Yankees aren't going to need a DH for the rest of the year.
They got guys.
But if he could play the outfield and fill in until their injured players come back, I think his value would be there.
But yeah, Jonas, I think the fact that he's hitting better in July bodes well for...
him being moved but not the package of prospects they get back in it's going to be mid like 15th best in an organization 18th best whatever but it'll fill up flesh out the jay's farm system while allowing them to see what they've got otherwise
It would be the most bizarre Blue Jays or Expos when I was there for that many years, 22 years.
Yeah, it would be.
You watch him at batting practice and he's rattling the hotel.
And when the game starts, it's like he's Luis Arias.
He's like lining balls.
in the right field.
And it's totally bizarre.
I think they're, well, I mean, I don't think, I'm hoping that there's an underlying injury that he's been gutting out and playing through.
And that next year he becomes the Vlad that nobody's worth that kind of money that he signed for, but he becomes that Vlad that is the face of the franchise and helps them get back to contention.
Go ahead.
Hey, the postseason that Vlad had last year bought him a lot of goodwill with the fan base, and I haven't seen Austin Matthews do that, so if he was coming off something like that, they might have a little more tolerance for it, but not much, and maybe you're right, maybe...
Yeah, that would not be a good thing.
But I think the end of season and the postseason that Vlad had, it's going to run out soon, especially when they trade all these guys.
