Baltimore Orioles: Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Is Quickly Becoming An Orioles Killer

Blue Jays third basemen Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s arrival to major league baseball was among the most hyped for any prospect in the history of the game. The son of former Baltimore Orioles designated hitter Vladimir Guerrero, Guerrero Jr. has the potential to be just as good if not better than his hall of fame father.

Despite some expected rookie struggles Guerrero has been as good as advertised in his first major league stint. He is slashing .268/.343/.455 with 13 home runs and 48 RBI’s in 80 games this season. He also took the baseball world by storm with an incredible home run derby as he broke the single-round home run record with 29 long-balls.
