Vladimir Guerrero will be a Toronto Blue Jay for life, essentially. And agreeing to the game’s second-largest contract is proof there’s a dance partner for almost everyone in Major League Baseball.
Guerrero’s 14-year, deferral-free $500 million extension trails only the great Juan Soto’s $765 million deal in value. It stops shy of Shohei Ohtani’s nice round number of $700 million, but Guerrero will see all the money before he’s on the wrong side of 40.
