Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and the Blue Jays: A Gamble That Could Make or Break Baseball’s Future

Guerrero is excellent at hitting it hard – his exit velocities routinely rank among the top 5% of MLB batters – and subpar at hitting it on the sweet spot. (Is he a good candidate for a torpedo bat? Maybe!) He has never ranked better than the 62nd percentile in that element of hitting, per Statcast, and has often come in among the bottom quarter of the league. That, plus his general lack of verve on the bases, limits his propensity for extra bases. Even last year, his 158 BIP+ trailed his top-of-the-leaderboard contemporaries.
