DUNEDIN, Fla. — Vladimir Guerrero Jr. loves Canada and particularly the Jays, however for his upcoming free company — he’s subsequent winter’s clear No. 1 man — he suggests he’ll contemplate any of the 30 groups. That features even the Yankees, though he hasn’t fully forgotten why they as soon as upset him.
Guerrero is a superb match for any big-market workforce, a pushed performer who’s improved his form and sport, and can be a plus wherever. However he’s additionally a household man, so I’m nonetheless not satisfied what the Yankees’ probabilities can be. (Half, however not all, of his concern associated to the Yankees’ therapy of his dad, Guerrero confirmed to The Put up.)
Sure, it was the Yankees’ altering their unique plan to signal his Corridor of Fame father (in late 2003 when Guerrero Jr. was 3, Yankees higher-ups have been mentioned “down the road” on a Guerrero deal earlier than George Steinbrenner and ex-Yankee Dwight Gooden met to signal Gooden’s nephew, Gary Sheffield, as a substitute). Nevertheless it was greater than that. It was additionally his father, a brilliantly wild-swinging famous person on the sphere however a level-headed fellow off it, who suggested him to be open-minded — at the least publicly.
“If I go to free agency, every team — all 30 teams — are going to have the opportunity to sit down with [me], to talk to me,” Guerrero mentioned by way of an interpreter. “I’m OK with everything. It’s in the past.”
