Blue Jays star Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has shocked fans and the baseball world with his claims about his $500 million contract. After a disappointing season in which he posted below-average numbers, Guerrero himself explained the reasoning behind his contract: "They didn't pay me to hit 40 every year. They paid me for what I already did."
In his mind, the $500 million he signed for was not for future performance, but for his already accomplished feats. At 22, he led the majors with 48 home runs, and at various points in his career, Guerrero was an MVP runner-up with stellar on-base percentages, slugging percentages, and OPSs. However, his performance took a nosedive in 2025, and the Toronto Blue Jays, along with their fanbase, are left wondering how the next 13 years of his contract will play out.
