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

The Right Vlad Jr. at the Right Time

In two seasons, last year and 2021, Guerrero has brought to bear the visceral promise of his bat, running batting averages well over .300 and packing real punch with it. If he replicates that sort of production, he’ll command a contract in the range of what he sought from Toronto over the offseason.

His other first four seasons in the majors raise the possibility of something less convincing, though. At times, his preternatural ability to make contact (104 contact+ in 2024) has put a damper on his ability to do damage. It’s a great start to hit the ball hard, but it’s even better to hit the ball hard and at the right angle to possibly fly over the fence.
