"Guerrero Jr.'s bat should be heating up very soon. Many Blue Jays fans probably won't remember Vladdy's statistics in March and April last year because October and November were so much fun, but it was very ugly."
"If the Blue Jays are going to be successful, the team doesn't need the 27-year-old to get walks and hit singles. Instead, they need him to mash baseballs out of Rogers Centre and he needs to look like the AL MVP candidate he was a few short years ago."
"Despite having a 'down-year' with 23 HR and 84 RBI, Guerrero Jr. turned it on in the postseason, finishing with 8 HR and 15 RBI in only 18 games, which translates to a 72 dinger season."
"It's only six games, but he's still yet to hit a home-run, or an extra base hit for that matter and only has two RBI."
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has yet to hit a home run in the first six games of the 2026 season, but there is confidence he will soon. Last year, he took 18 games to hit his first home run, which was disappointing. The Blue Jays need Guerrero Jr. to perform like an MVP candidate, especially after his strong postseason performance. Despite a strong pitching staff, the team has only a 4-2 record, and Guerrero Jr. must break out of his slump to help the team succeed.
