This agreement not only secures Guerrero’s presence in Toronto through the 2039 season but also underscores the organization’s commitment to building a championship-caliber team around its homegrown talent.
Guerrero, a three-time All-Star and the 2021 AL MVP runner-up, has been a cornerstone of the Blue Jays’ lineup since his debut in 2019. Known for his prodigious power and charismatic presence, he has consistently delivered at the plate, making him a fan favorite and a vital asset to the team’s success.
