Ross Atkins confirms it for Bichette and Guerrero
Blue Jays stars Bo Bichette and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. have been surrounding by trade talks for the past few weeks and GM Ross Atkins has finally spoken about it.
Atkins spoke to reporters yesterday on if he is actually looking at trading Bichette and Guerrero, with the Jays season going so poorly fans are wondering if he will move his stars and attempt a fast rebuild. The Blue Jays GM told the media it does not make any sense for the Jays to move those two.
