Player Outlook
In the spring of 2022, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. famously stated that 2021 was a trailer and now fans will see a movie. Like most sequels, the team and the player has failed to deliver on promises. Guerrero's 2021 nomadic season in friendly run environments helped him established career hights he has failed to come close to in each of the past two seasons. Management tweaked Rogers Centre before the 2023 season, but that did not prevent Guerrero's overall numbers from sliding for a second consecutive season as he and the rest of the club struggled to produce runs despite plenty of traffic on the bases throughout the season. If you treat 2021 as an outlier rather than a ceiling, 2024 Guerrero Jr. should not disappoint you given his skills provide a very high floor. Just remember that sequels are rarely better than the original and Vlady's 2021 season is a cult classic that should be appreciated rather than expected.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Launches third homer

    Guerrero went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-1 extra-innings loss to Seattle. Guerrero was responsible for the Jays' lone run Wednesday with a 459-foot solo blast off Logan Gilbert that tied the game 1-1 in the seventh inning. It's the third homer of the year for Guerrero, though he's gotten off to a slow start at the plate, going 10-for-50 with five RBI through his first 13 games. The 25-year-old Guerrero hit at least 30 homers with 90 RBI in each of his past two campaigns -- he slashed .264/.345/.444 across 602 at-bats last season.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: RBI double in win

    Guerrero went 2-for-4 with an RBI double and one run scored in Monday's 5-2 win against Seattle. Guerrero recently had a seven-game stretch during which he tallied just four hits over 24 plate appearances, but the slugger seems to be on an upswing over the past three contests with four hits, including two doubles and a homer. No matter if he's in a slump or hitting out of one, the 25-year-old will be a fixture in the Blue Jays lineup as he's been the No. 2 hitter in all 11 games to date.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Crushes first homer of season

    Guerrero went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Rays on Opening Day. The 25-year-old slugger demolished a Zach Eflin cutter in the sixth inning, sending it 450 feet over the batter's eye in center field. Guerrero has seen his numbers decline the last two seasons after a monster 2021 campaign in which he produced 48 homers, 111 RBI and a 1.002 OPS, and his ability to rebound to something closer to that level of performance will be crucial to the Blue Jays' fortunes in 2024.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: In line to bat second

    Guerrero is expected to open the season batting second for the Blue Jays, Rob Longley of the Toronto Sun reports. The overwhelming majority of Guerrero's starts last season came from the third (110 games) or fourth (36 games) spots in the Toronto batting order. However, manager John Schneider basically confirmed Tuesday that he planned to slide Guerrero up to the No. 2 hole in between George Springer and Bo Bichette. Justin Turner will follow them in the cleanup spot.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Slugs homer Friday

    Guerrero went 2-for-3 with a home run and four RBI in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers. He launched a Mason Englert offering completely out of the stadium to left-center field for a two-run shot in the fifth inning. Guerrero sat out a few days with a knee bruise he picked up making a sliding catch in foul territory last weekend, but it looks like he's fully healthy again. Through nine Grapefruit League games, the 25-year-old slugger is batting .417 (10-for-24) with a double and two homers.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Back at first base Friday

    Guerrero (knee) is starting at first base and batting third in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers. The 24-year-old returned to the lineup as the designated hitter Wednesday after sitting out a couple games with a bruised left knee, and he's back playing defense a couple days later. There never seemed to be significant concern over the injury, and there shouldn't be any worries regarding Guerrero's availability for Opening Day.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Back in Wednesday as DH

    Guerrero (knee) will bat third as the designated hitter in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Pirates. It's uncertain when Guerrero might return to the field, but he'll be able to return to exhibition play and get his at-bats in after making it through a full workout Tuesday. While Guerrero has been in and out of the lineup in recent days due to finger and knee issues, the Blue Jays don't seem to have any serious concern about his availability for Opening Day at this stage. The team didn't order imaging on his left knee.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Going through full workout Tuesday

    Guerrero (knee) will go through a full workout Tuesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports. Guerrero is missing a second straight Grapefruit League contest Tuesday with a left knee contusion, but he does not need any imaging and Blue Jays manager John Schneider said the club is "just being cautious right now." Expect Vlad Jr. to return in a day or two.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Out Tuesday with knee contusion

    Guerrero (knee) is out of Tuesday's lineup against the Yankees. He was scratched from Sunday's lineup due to a left knee contusion suffered Saturday and was not in Monday's lineup either.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Nursing bruised knee

    Guerrero was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Orioles due to a left knee contusion, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports. The 24-year-old was slated to start at first base and bat second in one of Sunday's split-squad games versus Baltimore, but he'll instead receive a day off after suffering the injury Saturday. Manager John Schneider said it's a minor issue that won't require medical testing, so Guerrero could be back in action within the next few days.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Back in action Saturday

    Guerrero (finger) will start at first base and bat third in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies. It appears to be all systems go for Guerrero after he jammed his left middle finger during a plate appearance Tuesday. He has six hits this spring, including a majestic, 438-foot homer to dead center field against the Phillies on March 4. A bounce-back season is widely expected for the 24-year-old.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Has been out with jammed finger

    Guerrero has been unavailable the last few days after jamming his left middle finger during a plate appearance Tuesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports. The good news is the injury is considered minor, as Guerrero is expected back in the lineup for Saturday's contest against the Phillies. Vlad Jr. has had a strong Grapefruit League showing this spring, going 6-for-16 with a double and a home run.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Belts first homer this spring

    Guerrero went 2-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies. The first baseman launched a no-doubt solo shot to straightaway center field of Nick Nelson in the first inning, Guerrero's first long ball of the spring, before adding an RBI single in the fifth. Guerrero came into camp in excellent shape, and that's translated into positive early results at the plate -- he's gone 6-for-13 through five games with a 1:2 BB:K.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Healthy to begin spring

    Guerrero acknowledged Tuesday that he played through nagging injuries for most of 2023, but he spent the offseason getting into better shape in an effort to stay in one piece through the long season, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports. "I achieved all the goals that I wanted to achieve," Guerrero said. "Of course, being in shape like I used to be, like I felt before in previous years, and I really believe that I achieved that goal. And I feel great right now." The first baseman dealt with knee and wrist issues last year, and while he missed only six games, he wasn't often playing at 100 percent. "If I tell you that I didn't play with pain in a lot of games, I would be lying," he said. "But that's not an excuse. It's part of the game. Sometimes you got to go on the field and grind, even if everything hurts. Also, I probably won't blame that because I didn't have the best preparation in the offseason last year." Guerrero seems to have learned his lesson when it comes to offseason prep, as he reported to camp both trimmer and stronger. If improved fitness translates into better results at the plate, the 24-year-old could recapture the MVP-level form he displayed in 2021.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Sets arbitration record

    Guerrero will make $19.9 million in 2024 after winning his arbitration case against the Blue Jays on Wednesday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports. It's the largest salary ever awarded by an arbitration panel, although the amount falls well short of the $31 million deal Juan Soto reached with the Yankees in January to avoid arbitration. Guerrero's numbers dropped in nearly every statistical category last season compared to the marks he set in 2022, but the slugging first baseman will receive a $5.4 million raise nonetheless. Guerrero remains a high-value fantasy asset, but his stellar 2021 campaign is beginning to look more like an anomaly than a season off which we should base expectations.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Resting in finale

    Guerrero is not in Sunday's lineup against the Rays. Guerrero, who was once again near the top of the MLB leaderboard in games played this year (156), will get a breather in advance of the postseason. Cavan Biggio picks up the start at first base, batting fifth.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Crosses plate three times in win

    Guerrero went 3-for-4 with a walk, two doubles and three runs scored in Friday's 11-4 win over the Rays. The 24-year-old slugger continues a late-season surge that has helped push the Jays to the verge of the playoffs -- they need one more win, or a Mariners loss, to lock up a wild-card spot. Over his last 12 games, Guerrero is slashing .302/.423/.628 with two doubles, four homers, eight RBI and 10 runs.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Homers twice in win

    Guerrero went 2-for-5 with two homers in Sunday's win over the Rays. Guerrero looks to be back on track after going 1-for-13 in his previous five games. He smacked three homers in three games prior to that. The 24-year-old Guerrero is up to 26 homers and 94 RBI on the year while batting .266 with a .793 OPS through 660 plate appearances.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Returns to lineup

    Guerrero (knee) is starting at designated hitter and batting third Friday against Tampa Bay. Guerrero missed two consecutive starts due to discomfort in his right knee, but he'll return to the lineup Friday after making a pinch-hit appearance during Thursday's loss. Guerrero had been enjoying a five-game hitting streak before getting injured, going 7-for-18 with three homers and six RBI in that span.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Out again with knee issue

    Guerrero (knee) remains out of the lineup Thursday versus the Yankees. Guerrero was scratched from the lineup Wednesday due to right knee discomfort and promptly sent for an MRI, the results of which are still being evaluated. Spencer Horwitz will play first base and bat sixth for the Blue Jays on Thursday at Yankee Stadium as Davis Schneider fills the DH role and hits cleanup.
