The Blue Jays, as of Friday, have control of Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s 2025 season because the third baseman will not be able to clock more than 172 big-league days this season. The Blue Jays can call up Vladimir Guerrero Jr. at any time now without worrying about losing a year of contract control. Guerrero joined Triple-A Buffalo on Thursday after starting the season on a rehab progression following a Grade 1 left oblique strain he suffered in spring training. Nor did they let on if they had a preference about bringing him up for a home or away game. “I wouldn’t call it day by day,” Atkins said.
