    Will he even be able to stick at 1B very long?

      You've seen him, right? That said, signing Shaw was a catalyst in this.

        Having watched Shaw extensively in Milwaukee, I can safely say he's better than Vlad at 3B. But not by much. I think the catalyst was much more Austin Martin than Travis Shaw. And, as you hinted at, Vlad's mass continuing to increase.

          Sure, that's what I meant. A 21-year old super-phenom shouldn't already be converted into a DH. Something is going wrong.

            I figured he was gaining more weight to improve his fielding. Logically, baseballs will be drawn to him more as his gravitational pull increases. In MLB, that's called the "Sandoval Effect".

            • Further to the apparent decline of Vlad in the field - Shaw has an injury and will either not play or DH only early on. Plan for 3B? Joe Panik.

                fwiw, back in Feb/Mar, Panik was looking really good
                It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

                    and rumblings are that it will be longer

                        I think there's a very real chance, he has looked great this year (Saturday notwithstanding and has progressively been getting called on later & later in games) ... mind you Giles is supposed to be throwing again

                        • Jays pick up Vogelbach who was DFA'd. Speculation is that Rowdy will be traded for pitching.

                            How many fat DHs can one team have?
