Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. set a self-imposed deadline for negotiations regarding a possible contract extension with Toronto.
According to multiple reports, Guerrero and the club were unable to reach a deal by Monday night’s deadline.
“They expressed what they had. I expressed what I had,” Guerrero said, per MLB.com. “I’m here, and we didn’t get an agreement. Now, they’re going to have to compete with 29 more teams.”
The Red Sox could be in the mix if Guerrero makes it to free agency next year. According to USA Today’s Bob Nightengale, Guerrero has expressed interest in playing for Boston.
