Vladimir Guerrero Jr. moves on from the Blue Jays’ World Series heartbreak. The slugger, last to leave the dugout after a Game 7 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers, reflects on the experience. “I just turned the page,” Guerrero states, focusing on gratitude for the season. The Blue Jays fell 5-4 in 11 innings, missing their chance for a third championship.
Manager John Schneider emphasizes a fresh approach this spring training, declaring, “We’re not defending anything. We’re attacking 2026.” Guerrero, now the longest-tenured player, embraces his evolving role. “I always put myself as a good teammate,” he says, acknowledging the departure of Bo Bichette to the New York Mets.
The Blue Jays sign Japanese infielder Kazuma Okamoto, alongside pitchers Dylan Cease and Cody Ponce, aiming for a strong season ahead. Guerrero’s leadership and performance will be pivotal as the team gears up for the upcoming challenges.
