No doubt about it. He would have been lucky to get 250-275 million this off-season over 10 years from a desperate franchise looking to make a splash. Jays essentially paying him double what Vlad could have gotten guaranteed in free agency.

Not leaving Little in to face Devers is odd

That’s not a hit, that’s a bad error by Bo

Jays and Raptors SL SF are being played at the same time tomorrow, which one should get the bigger screen?

Funny how I tuned into this game late in the 2nd inning when it was already 4-0. Watched the rest of the game with 0 runs scored lol

Hmm. You can watch Castleton go 0-4 or Vlad go 0-4.... but both teams get the W.

Vlad ruins another inning with a GIDP. Daily occurrence at this point.

That double play showed everything wrong with him right now, no leg drive, only using his upper body which results in a flat swing and another ground ball double play.

5 stranded runners in 2 innings, not great

Vlad ruins another inning with his baserunning. Getting to be a semi-daily occurrence at this point.

Sucks to be losing 1-0 when we've been all over Webb.

Gotta hand it to Atkins, Lauer was an amazing pickup. It's odd that they were able to get him for just a minor league contract, given he's had some quality seasons as a starter with Milwaukee. A very shrewd pickup.

Not all that dissimilar to Bassitt allowing 10 hits on 0 runs yesterday. Webb is on pace for the complete game though.

Bichette is literally the slowest runner in baseball outside of Kirk not to score on that

Wouldn't want to be the team giving him that next contract

How does Bichette not score on that Barger double?

He's a bottom 5 percentile runner in baseball at this point, the guy can't move at all
