Part 2/7:
While the players are not necessarily ranked, they represent a diverse mix of talent across different teams, each with unique situations and negotiations ahead.
Key Candidates for Extensions
Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
One of the standout players on this list is Vladimir Guerrero Jr. The Toronto Blue Jays are in a position where securing Guerrero’s long-term future is not only important for team-building but also vital for securing fan goodwill. The Blue Jays have struggled in recent years despite a high payroll, and locking up Guerrero could reignite excitement amid their fanbase. The potential extension could be worth upwards of $585 million over 13 to 14 years, with speculation that it could set a record for the highest contract in MLB history.
