Confirmed deal : Trade Pitch Has Yankees Acquiring Guerrero Jr. in 4-Player Blockbuster

 

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will be the top free agent available in 2025 and a trade pitch has the Toronto Blue Jays dealing him to a division rival.

 

MLB analyst Jacob Mountz of FanSided shared a trade prediction that sees the New York Yankees land Guerrero Jr. in a four-player blockbuster.

 

The proposed deal would be a blockbuster as New York gets Guerrero Jr. to bolster its offense and start at first base, or at third base. Toronto, meanwhile, gets three young prospects to potentially begin a rebuild.

 

Guerrero Jr. is in the final year of club control with the Blue Jays. The first baseman hit .323 with 30 home runs and 103 RBIs in 2024. He’s a four-time All-Star and two-time Silver Slugger winner.

 

Jones is the best prospect the Blue Jays receive from the Yankees. The outfielder was selected 25th overall by the Yankees in 2022 and is expected to make his MLB debut next season.

 

Warren, meanwhile, was selected in 2021 and made his MLB debut last season. The right-hander can start at Triple-A and add some insurance to the Blue Jays rotation going forward

 

Finally, Pereira has MLB experience and can compete for the Blue Jays’ fourth outfielder spot in 2025. The 23-year-old is a good hitter who would add some much-needed offense to the Blue Jays lineup.

 

Moutz believes the Yankees should pursue Guerrero Jr. now as he would boost New York’s chances of winning the World Series.

Guerrero Jr. is one of the best hitters in baseball but his future with Toronto is uncertain, which is why he believes the Yankees should try and trade for him

 

The Yanks hope that their new pair of bats in Cody Bellinger and Paul Goldschmidt can compensate by replacing Soto’s vast array of hitting talents with lineup depth, but filling Soto’s place in the lineup is easier said than done. Luckily, there might be a solution. Imagine Vlad Guerrero Jr. in pinstripes. If you are a Yankee fan, you probably already did that at the trade deadline — and about four times since,” Moutz wrote.
