Another day, another thought about Blue Jays Vladimir Guerrero Jr This time, it was Blue Jays insider Shi Davidi.
After host Jeff Blair started out by opining that the numerical difference between the Blue Jays and Guerrero should not be un-bridgaeble, Davidi was quick to point out that these things are easy to talk about when it's not your money.
When your talking about the scale of dollars and everything is relative within the amounts of money we're discussing and the amounts of money that baseball as an industry and the Guerrero' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Blue Jays as a team generate, that.. that isn't a huge amount of money..
Davidi is not incorrect in his assessment. Yes, it's a $50MM gap, but it's $50 over fourteen years. That's less than four million a season. And this is a team that is paying Myles Straw $11M.
This isn't a huge amount of money. The Blue Jays spent 1/5th of that on Myles Straw If you're a fan, you're thinking that's not a good reason to walk away.
Every organization has a financial commitment and a point where they say no. The question is, will the Blue Jays stick to theirs?
