8 mins agoToronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is coming off hitting a career-best .323 with 30 home runs, 98 runs scored, 103 RBI, and two steals in his age-25 season. He made 11 starts at third base as well and should be eligible at the hot corner on several platforms. Guerrero also played in 159 games with 697 plate appearances, which gives him six straight seasons without missing extended time to open his career. Health can never be guaranteed but that kind of track record can't be scoffed at. Those who ascribe to the best ability being availability surely have Vladito circled on their draft boards. His strong 2024 was backed by a dark-red Statcast profile that had him in the 97th or higher percentile for average exit velocity, expected batting average, slugging percentage, and weighted on-base average. The young star did all of this while improving his walk rate and dropping his whiffs, rocking a career-low 9.6 percent swinging-strike mark. The only thing he likely can't do is give you a chance at double-digit steals but being such an average boost is increasingly helpful in today's era. Late January ATC projections give him four steals to go with 30 home runs and a .294 batting average. His early ADP is around the 16th pick, which is about where RotoBaller's consensus has him. If he does chip in 8-10 swipes or start upping his barrel rate into the elites then he could crack the first round for 2026.--Nick Mariano - RotoBaller
