  1. Is his relationship with the FO repairable by this point?

    I’d love to have him back if he can show he can be a positive member of the group.

  2. Remember when Vladdy was being called fat and had poor performance his first year? Then came back fit and absolutely killed it?

    I want that story line again (lets ignore Vladdys performance this year)

  3. Too soon to judge. His lack of effort to improve this summer has seriously dented my confidence of a big comeback

  4. Atta boy! The reports of he and Vladdy are pretty encouraging so far. Would love to see them both (and Kirk) come back in much better shape and have bounce back years.

  5. I think he has his own Performance Centre business or invests in one. So he has all the resources he needs to come back strong. All the motivation too. I have faith in him

  6. Serious question: but do we actually think he still wants to be a Blue Jay? Seems like the relationship is quite sour now.

  7. I mean yeah, I’d hope so. It’s easy to lose fat when your routine doesn’t involve constant travel and staying in hotels and you can focus on working out all day every day.

  8. Alek’s a good dude. We gotta remember that this guy is so talented that he absolutely dominated every level that he played at, including the majors by the time he was fucking 23. I don’t know if it got to his head or he got over confident and started slacking, but it’s pretty easy to imagine that struggling (and struggling badly) for the first time in his athletic career must have been quite a shock for him and he didn’t take it very well from what we know.

    Regardless, he has the talent and I have confidence that next season he will come back to being our ace like he was in 22.

  9. It’s almost like the sports writer who said Alek would be even better if he lost some weight – and then was called out by Alek for body shaming, was actually right

  10. I honestly won’t give a fuck until he learns to swallow his pride and actually report to where the team designates him. Ego is bigger than his body and until he can fix that, any conversation regarding him is a non-starter imo

  11. Did he lose an entire roster spot’s service time that could have gone to some guy who worked out ***last*** off-season?
