The Toronto Blue Jays have reached an agreement with star first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. on a $28.5 million contract, ending months of negotiations and speculation about his future with the team.
Guerrero, who had been one of the most sought-after free agents on the market this offseason, had been rumored to be courted by several other teams, including the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers. However, he ultimately chose to stay in Toronto, where he has become a fan favorite and one of the most exciting young stars in the game.
