During the 2025 ALDS, Toronto Blue Jays superstar Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was practically on top of the baseball world when he nearly single-handedly dismantled the New York Yankees in the short series.
By going 9-for-17 for a .529 average, 1.609 OPS, along with five runs scored, three home runs and nine RBIs in just four games, it made the Yankees look like the laughing stock of the league when they kept pitching to him, leading to their ultimate demise.
However, once the ALCS began, the Seattle Mariners appeared to have the answer for Guerrero. In fact, they shut him down for good in the first two games when he went 0-for-7 with just one walk in eight plate appearances.
