Is Vladdy the guy? How is he compared to JRod? Would you give him the JRod contract?
The Mariners and JRod agreed to a 12-year, $209.3-million contract. There’s no way in heck I’d offer that to Vladdy right now. JRod is a better defender, at a much more valuable position (CF), and him and Vladdy are producing pretty similarly at the plate this year. (Vladdy is a top 60 MLB slugger right now and a minus defender by defensive runs saved.) What’s interesting is how differently the Ms and Jays have handled these players. I believe the Ms inked Julio after his rookie season. Meanwhile, Vladdy’s in his 5th full season, and him and the Jays have been going year to year so far, because they can’t agree on terms. I think we probably do that again next year
