Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has agreed to a $28.5MM salary, allowing him and the Blue Jays to focus on a potential long-term deal, aiming significantly higher than previous offers.
Guerrero is looking for a deal of at least $450MM, well above the $313.5MM extension Rafael Devers received, reflecting the new contractual landscape post-Soto's record deal.
The Blue Jays have not engaged in extension talks since before Christmas, but discussions are anticipated to resume before Spring Training, aligning with Guerrero's desire for resolution.
Guerrero will halt negotiations once Spring Training begins unless progress is evident, indicating that he seeks to finalize a deal outside of playing commitments.
