Vlad Is Now 34

Everyone thought he was 33, but now he's really 34.

Apparently in an interview he said he was 34, eventhough every source said he was 33. He kept that hidden this long, and all the sudden he slipped? Pretty odd.

Anyways, Vlad is in the last year of his deal. Will this affect his next one? I think the economy will have the final say on that. If Vlad has a great year are the Angels going to really offer him significant less money because hes 1 year older than they thought?

Guerrero, who will make $15 million this season, is in the final year of a contract, and any new extension he signs probably will be for one less year than he would have signed for, which would cost him millions.

I doubt he would get anything more than a 2 year deal anyways. Even at 35, he'd still be worthy or a 2 year deal. If they signed Abreu for $5m, and the economic climate stays the same, would they really think about giving Vlad 3 years $45m? I highly doubt it. Vlad could lose some money in this, but I don't think it's as obvious as this guy says.
