Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has made it clear that he is open to discussions regarding a contract extension up until the specified deadline. The Blue Jays are in a unique position where they know the financial expectations of Guerrero Jr. The challenge lies in whether they can meet those expectations. Securing a deal would alleviate many uncertainties surrounding the team's direction. Conversely, failing to reach an agreement could mark the beginning of a troubling phase for fans and management alike, as they could face an uncertain future should their franchise star choose to depart.
