In his first at-bat, Manny Machado should be soft-tossed a ball that either bursts blue for Dodgers or red for Phillies. Turn this game into one big team-reveal party.

Simple yes or no question: Do the #BlueJays and Vladdy sign an extension before his self-imposed deadline?

@oldpappy59 @Leafs2010 I don't think we can begin to put a number on it - but if we could, the percentages would definitely be lower next offseason versus now.

@TouchEmAllJoe29 As things stand right now, I've seen them projected to win anywhere between 82 and 85 games next season. That's not good enough, so I would grade them at a C regardless of whether or not they extend Vlad.

@DveStewart @Arock1234 If you were him and you were this close to free agency, wouldn't you want to wait and see what the other 29 teams have to offer? That's why he won't sign with the Jays unless they meet his asking price.

@Arock1234 Each side is obviously waiting for the other to blink, but I honestly think if it were going to get done it would have been done by now.

"Rich history" of a team that can't even be bothered to put up any statute smh. Also....$40??!? #BlueJays
It's been a while, but the Blue Jays announced today they'll be doing stadium tours again. This is the best way to see all the new premium areas of Rogers Centre, but it'll cost you $40 for adults, $25 for kids.

I can't imagine working in professional sports and doing anything around betting that could even remotely be misconstrued as a violation of the rules. Unbelievably stupid.
MLB umpires are allowed to bet legally on other sports. Basically, Hoberg erred in sharing an account with a friend and professional poker player who had made baseball bets, and then he deleted messages central to the investigation into his conduct.

@interPARASect24 The team is improved, that is a fact. They need another bat and extending Vladdy doesn't count. Giménez is expensive for what he is. I have no idea what Scherzer has left in the tank and he will definitely bring in fans, but he doesn't solve anything beyond this season.

RT @JoshuaHowsam: Scherzer is such a great addition. Now go get Alonso and sign Vlad and be a super fun team.
