They could also trade them. Which at this point is probably the best option if they won't re-sign at reasonable prices, which seems likely. Especially for Vlad - seeing what Soto got and the season he had last year, makes sense to bet on yourself, imo, short of a big overpay.
The Jays aren't contenders this year without multiple more bats that it doesn't look like they're getting. Given that, it probably makes sense to recoup assets on the pending FAs. Could just plan for comp picks I suppose, but I'd think they'd get considerably more than that for Vlad especially.
