It remains to be seen if the Toronto Blue Jays are willing to trade Vladimir Guerrero Jr. this season, but the Chicago Cubs are apparently interested in acquiring the All-Star first baseman.
The way Nightengale's report was phrased implies that the Blue Jays and Cubs have not actually had any concrete dialogue about a potential deal. Still, Chicago targeting Guerrero could really shake up the market ahead of the MLB Trade Deadline on July 30.
The 25-year-old first baseman is batting .294 with seven home runs, 30 RBI, an .815 OPS and a 1.7 WAR so far this season. Just since April 27, Guerrero is batting .357 with a .939 OPS. Ever since Guerrero made his MLB debut on April 26, 2019, he has appeared in 724 of the Blue Jays' last 747 games. He is a career .280 hitter with an .842 OPS, averaging 31 home runs, 97 RBI and a 3.8 WAR per 162 games.
