It's been a few days now that the Blue Jays have confirmed that Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was going to spend the vast majority of his career in Toronto on the sidelines of his 14 -year contract.
And it is today that the City-Reine club “presented” it to the Toronto media.
Obviously, it is interesting to note that the main interested party was very happy with his new contract. But that, I think you could doubt it, right?
Blue Jays want to win with him, he wants to stay, he wants to see Bo Bichette stay, etc. It was all expected.
But it is interesting to note that Vlady, when he was questioned by Benoît Rioux over his years in Montreal, said that love received in Canada in general (as much in Montreal, where he was born, that Toronto, where he became a man) prompted him to remain in the country.
He considers Canada as his second house and he feels good here.
The fact of having had the contract he wanted in Toronto therefore makes sure that the wish he has been for ten years, that of carrying the uniform of Blue Jays until the end, becomes more and more possible.
And when he saw him kissing the Blue Jays logo on his cap at the end of the press conference, he sent a clear message: he likes Blue Jays and Canada, which is represented on the cap.
