The Association of Professional Baseball Players in the Premier League of the United States and Canada (MLBPA) has responded angrily to Toronto`s Blue Jays decision not to call Superlander Vladimir Guerrero Jr. for the final month of the regular MLB season. According to the union, the club deliberately delayed the 19-year-old Dominican`s career with a Canadian passport and thus postponed his right to become a free agent for one year.
