I love Vladdy but I think it's the right call to move him. I never trusted him at 3b.
Donaldson wasn't a gold glover or anything but he was pretty solid. It's just too much of a drop-off to have Vladdy there. I think you're right too, the recent draft accelerated & altered their plan for Vlad this season.

The Pennsylvania Department of Health and the Jays' 1st home game is a week from today.
"In recent weeks, we have seen a significant increase in the number of COVID-19 cases in southwestern Pennsylvania," Dr. Rachel Levine, the state's secretary of health, said in a statement.
"To add travellers to this region for any reason, including for professional sports events, risks residents, visitors and members of both teams. We know that this virus does not discriminate and can even make professional athletes very sick. We are committed to protecting the health and well-being of all Pennsylvanians."

Alright....not Pittsburgh. Wonder what affect this will have on the Jays. I know Buffalo isn't ideal because then they don't have MLB facilities.

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
I think it's mostly the players not wanting to "rough it" in a minor league park.

Giles has elbow soreness.
Didn't look good yesterday. Typical Fastball is like 97-99 for him, throwing 93 yesterday with 0 control.

Biiiiiig solo shots tonight. Hope the pen can hold on this time.
Honestly it was pretty selfish to act like everything was ok the first time the pitching coach came out. Giles knew he was hurting and not right and should have told Pete Walker he had to come out. Cost the Jays a shot and getting a healthy pitcher in to save that game. Also sucks that he is hurt.

If it's TJ, I think some pitchers feel no real pain in their arm when it happens. Some people experience a pop, some experience numb in the hand, some I think don't experience really anything because adrenaline is so high.
So if it's in fact his UCL, I kinda get why he didn't pull himself. However, if you're pitches are everywhere and your FB is 4-5ticks slower for no reason...the coach should have pulled him regardless of what Giles thinks.
