"When I had time to think about what I want, basically, my ultimate goal really is to play with Vladdy (Guerrero Jr.) forever, to win a championship with him and to do that with this organization." The two-time all-star shortstop expressed his commitment to the Jays while preparing for a rehab assignment. He emphasized his desire to achieve greatness alongside his teammate and remain loyal to the franchise.
"I always take players' statements with a grain of salt. And, of course, some people keep telling us that Bo wants to leave... But I'm sure Bo would like to stay with the Jays. It is comfortable for him here." The author reflects on the uncertainty of player sentiments while acknowledging the strong connection Bichette feels with the team and community.
"Can the team sign both Bo and Vlad? That's a question. They are up near the cap now, and they need to add players. And does the team see his value the same way he does?" The piece raises concerns about the potential for contract negotiations amid salary cap constraints and differing valuations of player talent.
"I tend to think players will always go where the most money. The money a team will give them equates to their value." This statement highlights the reality of professional sports contracts, where financial considerations often outweigh emotional or team loyalty.
