Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Blue Jays bid to bounce back vs. Braves

April 15 - Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has a new, huge contract but no home runs.

Guerrero will look to flex his muscles on Tuesday night when Toronto hosts the Atlanta Braves.

The Blue Jays held a media conference on Monday afternoon to make Guerrero's 14-year, $500 million contract extension official. He then went 0-for-4 in an 8-4 loss to the Braves.

Guerrero had a couple of hard-hit balls -- a flyout to the warning track in center in the first inning that brought a big roar of anticipation from the crowd, and a line drive to shortstop in the fourth.
