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

Those pesky millimeters between single and homer are going to loom large for Guerrero and the Blue Jays.

As you might recall from this past winter’s market, hitters coming off merely good seasons – such as Alex Bregman (129 RV+) and Pete Alonso (127 RV+) – usually find more skeptical markets. That’s especially true of sluggers without defensive selling points.

Now, Guerrero has the advantage of youth. He’ll enter the market heading into his age-27 season, where Alonso was set to start his age-30 season. That will matter. But it won’t bridge the gap between two years at $27 million per (Alonso’s fallback deal with the Mets) and 15 years at more than $33 million (the bottom end of the reported Guerrero ask).
