Vladimir Guerrero makes his return to the MLB, as it is reported that the 37-year-old has signed a minor-league contract with the Toronto Blue Jays.
Reports USA Today:
The deal was announced Thursday by the Blue Jays before a four-game series at Minnesota. General manager Alex Anthopoulos cautioned there's no guarantee the 37-year-old will join the big league team. Toronto will send him to extended spring training in Dunedin, Fla., and assess his condition.
Guerrero hit .290 with 13 homers and 63 RBIs in 145 games as a designated hitter for Baltimore last season. During his 16-year major league career, Guerrero has a .318 batting average with 449 homers, tied for 35th.
Good to see Vlad back.
