Having a look at the Blue Jays minor league system kinda leaves you hoping: Like father like son?
Vladimir Guerrero Jr walking off the last Blue Jays spring training game in 2018 only fuels more comparisons. It was just over 11 months ago that the 19-year-old Vlad Jr launched the game-winning home run in his father’s former home park at Olympic stadium in Montreal, leaving many to wonder if Vlad Guerrero Jr. was as good, or even better prepared to dominate the MLB than his father was.
It was the moment that cemented in lots of fan’s minds that Guerrero was for real, and could carve his own path from underneath his father’s tremendously large shadow.
