2 notes: 1)Vladdy's English has never been better! 2) he finally says that all he wants to do right now is concentrate on winning a World Series THIS year for the Toronto Blue Jays!

Alejandro Kirk has a .455 OBP in Spring Training and a .951 OBP. Dude is going to be so key to the Blue Jays success this year!

Blue Jays may have found their new leadoff hitter. Bo Bichette is batting .381 in Spring Training with a 1.028 OPS 🔥 Went 3 for 3 by end of the 3rd inning. Bo is so back!

Anthony Santander's first home run with the Blue Jays with substituted Buck audio! (Pirates broadcasters didn't even call it)

Orelvis Martinez left NO DOUBT he's still got HR power with the Jays' first homer of Spring Training against the Yankees! Remains one of the brightest prospects in the Blue Jays system. Let's hope this dinger is the first of many in 2025 with the big club!

Vladdy showed a lot of maturity and class in announcing the failed deal. He made it clear he loves Blue Jays fans, and gave it his all. For his final year, he says he'll play every day with his whole heart and give the same love he has for his whole career. 🥹 In his own words:

This one is going to go down in the annals of #Bluejays history as one of the greatest front office screw-ups this team has ever had. A generational talent - though they won’t admit it - who wants to spend his entire career in Toronto, and they won’t meet his price. Here’s Gregor’s early story:

"Be courageous." - Vladdy, quoting Joshua 1:9 Vlad began deadline day at 6am by posting an IG photo of a coffee cup bearing the biblical command to have courage, By end of Mon, if the Blue Jays don't extend Vladdy, he'll enter FA in Nov. Let's cheer on the parties to get it done!

"1" - Vlad (Feb16/2025) Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has posted an Instagram photo marked with "1". Just *1* day left for the Blue Jays to sign him for life. They can get it done. Bring this Canadian-born generational player home for good!

Vlad is going to hit a bunch of walk-off World Series winning homers for the Blue Jays at the Rogers Centre over the next decade-and-a-half. ❤️

"I want to see that happen. I'm confident they will figure it out." - Jose Bautista on Vlad Extension (Feb14/2025) Jose Bautista hopes & believes the Blue Jays & Vladimir Guerrero Jr will sign a long-term deal! He says the size & devotion of the Jays fanbase will play a role!

Great to see baseball back in Dunedin! Blue Jays Spring Training Day 1 Highlights, courtesy of Blue Jays, Keegan Matheson, & Hazel Mae. Awesome to see footage of the boys!

Shapiro and Atkins, make this happen. Make Vlad a Blue Jay for life!

Atkins really needed this. We all did!! Blue Jays offseason is looking up!

It didn't lead to a deal with Roki Sasaki, but Bo Bichette, Daulton Varsho & Chad Green still deserve lots of credit for making the trip to Toronto to welcome Sasaki and support the organization www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/...

Blue Jays have a two-year, $15 million deal with Yimi Garcia. Source tells my colleagues @bnsbaseball.bsky.social and Shi Davidi. Pending physical. First to report @aria1exander.bsky.social

Jose Berrios on extending Vladdy: "When we sign Vladdy, we can sign whoever they want… But I think the priority should be Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and then if we add Juan Soto, it would be a perfect world." See like a pretty good idea to me 🤷‍♂️ Quote via: El Vocero's Jarniel Canales Conde #BlueJays
