The Toronto Blue Jays potential contract extension for first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr has been announced and it seems to be at a great price.
The Blue Jays have yet to give any real information regarding the Guerrero contract negotiations which is why so teams and insiders believe they are willing to look into to possibly trading him.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr potential contract extension offer announce
The Blue Jays are apparently looking to make Guerrero a massive contract extension if they end up losing out on the Juan Soto sweepstakes but it seems almost impossible for them to land Soto without keeping Guerrero long term.
The Toronto Blue Jays are aggressively targeting superstar Juan Soto this offseason but have a strategic backup plan. If they fail to sign Soto, the team is predicted to prioritize a long-term extension for Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who had an exceptional 2024 season with a .323 average, 30 homers, and 103 RBIs. -BVM
According to reports, the Blue Jays are projected to make Guerrero an offer that floats around $259 million over 10 years which should give him an average salary of $25.9 million per season.
Guerrero's potential contract could reach $259 million over ten years, as the Blue Jays aim to show their commitment to contending. Key to this strategy will be addressing their competitive roster through free agency, setting a foundation for Guerrero's extension. -BVM
Many believe that the Blue Jays need to make signing Guerrero a priority if they miss out on Soto but it is hard to believe that Soto would be willing to come to Toronto if they don't show that they want to win by signing their best current player in Guerrero to a long term deal.
The Blue Jays need to prioritize extending Guerrero Jr. if they miss out on Soto, as this move will be critical in maintaining a competitive outlook and ensuring their stars feel valued and motivated to lead the team toward postseason contention. -BVM
If the Blue Jays are somehow able to lock down Soto this off-season plus land Guerrero on a 10 year deal, they will jump from last place in the division to World Series contenders.
