If all goes well I wouldn't wager that we'd see him anytime before September 2021. Don't have a spot for him anyways... I wager he ends up as a 3B and the Jays can squeeze a few more years out of Vlad there before giving him a 1B glove (which is a waste of a good arm but you can only fight genetics for so long and Vlad's body isn't built for range).

Yeah, I wasn't saying he'd have skipped Dunedin, but that he would have been there for the last part of the season, doninated and would now be looking at starting in AA. I would have expected him to have the same timeline as Bichette.
Ah well. Hopefully he stays healthy this season and gets here in 2021 sometime.
