00:00Here is Ray Jays general manager Ross Atkins. Now everybody in Toronto from
00:05what I've seen today they can't stand this guy. Here he is talking about not
00:10getting a deal done with Vlade.
00:13Ross, how is this front office kind of feeling? What are your thoughts right now knowing that you guys could not come up with a deal?
00:19Yeah, obviously very disappointed. We worked very hard. The motivation is still there.
00:25Confident that every thought, idea we had, every dollar that we had was
00:32communicated. But we're obviously disappointed to not have gotten that
00:36done. Doesn't change our desire. We will certainly be motivated and remain
00:42motivated.
00:43Yeah, I don't believe him. Let me just say this. We've already discussed this with
00:48the guys who gave. They have more money than God himself. And they went short side on Vlade.
00:55So here's what I would do if I were Guerrero. I would not accept any offer that they make
01:00me at all. I would play the entire season and hit home runs. Not listen to anyone. Not
01:09listen to the manager or the GM or the fans or the media and just absolutely leave and
01:17go play for the Boston Red Sox in the offseason, which will be his right. And that'll be the
01:21end of it. And they will rue the day that they were 100 million short. Meanwhile, these
01:27morons offered the world to every single free agent, judge, Ohtani, every player, every
01:36single player that was available that mattered in Major League Baseball, the Jays made an
01:40offer to over the last few years. And they didn't sign one of them. The best they could
01:44do was Anthony Santander. Let's just face facts. These guys are morons and they have
01:51screwed up the Toronto Blue Jays. And what they deserve is they deserve Bichette, Vlade
01:58and Bizzio, all of them to just leave, just leave and go play where you want. Vlade can
02:04play one season. That's like butter. And then go play for the Red Sox. I hate the Red Sox.
02:09But if I were him, that's exactly what I would do. I would screw them the exact same
02:14way they are effing him right now. They asked him and they said we gave him every single
02:18dollar that we had. They are so full of shack. It's not even funny. That guy, he might as
02:24well have liar coming out in bold, red, bloody letters out of his mouth when he talks.
02:30He also said this morning that Atkins that and Shapiro said this as well, because I believe
02:35he talked after him, that they're not going to trade him. That would be stupid, too. He
02:40has already made it very clear that he's going to leave. OK, you have a player who would
02:47you would get something back for whether that's now or in May, June, July at the trade deadline.
02:54I don't care where Toronto is. And you know what, if they're in first place to let it
02:57ride it out, whatever, they won't be. They won't be. They need to get something of value
03:05because he's going to leave. He is not going back to Toronto.
03:08Let me tell you something. The Red Sox and the Orioles and the Yankees are obviously
03:13the Yankees went to the World Series. They're all better than the Blue Jays. The Blue Jays
03:17are in last place. It's look, that's a very competitive division.
03:23Red Sox are better. We know the Rays are always a problem. You know, the Orioles have great
03:28young hitting. I don't think their pitching is that great, but they got great young hitting
03:31and it's not out of the question that that's where they could end up when it all is said
03:37and done in this division.
