Blue Jays' Guerrero Jr. Turns Down $340M Offer

The Toronto Blue Jays and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. are in ongoing negotiations for a contract extension, though no agreement has been reached yet. Guerrero Jr., who will become a free agent after the 2025 season, reportedly turned down a $340 million offer, with estimates suggesting he could command over $400 million in free agency. Former teammate Teoscar Hernandez expressed confusion over the lack of a deal, emphasizing Guerrero's desire to stay with the team and warning about potential frustration. Despite rumors linking Guerrero to the New York Mets, MLB insiders believe the Blue Jays are not inclined to trade him and will continue efforts to secure his future before spring training. The Blue Jays have shown their commitment to building a competitive team by signing new players, but Guerrero remains central to their strategy.
