Slugger issues the ultimatum that Jays must now compete with 29 other teams for his services
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is heading to free agency as the Blue Jays failed to meet his contract demands before the deadline. He ended negotiations after setting a deadline post the 2022 season, emphasizing his desire to join a winning team, a sentiment underscored by the Jays' playoff drought since 2016. Despite the Jays offering a record deal, it fell short of Guerrero's expectations. His decision to focus on the season without contract distractions marks a significant blow to the team's future plans.
