Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is glistening as the face of the Toronto Blue Jays while making that 14-year $500 million contract extension look like a great move thus far. After a postseason that exemplified both his reputation and the Blue Jays' October identity all together, Vladdy Jr. has firmly re-established himself among baseball's elite. MLB Network ranked Guerrero No. 10 on its Top 100 Players Right Now list, placing him one spot behind Corbin Carroll of the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Good morning! MLB Network just completed its annual exercise in ranking the top-100 players in Major League Baseball. You already know who number 1 is, and he doesn't play for the Red Sox. But Garrett Crochet does, and he led the way for the Sox by coming in as the 12th-best player in the game. Rounding out the rankings for the Sox were Roman Anthony (41), Jarren Duran (58), Ranger Suárez (79), and Aroldis Chapman (81).

Springer rebounded from a rough 2024 season to post a .959 OPS and hit 32 home runs, to go with a .399 on-base percentage, 27 doubles in 140 games. He also scored 106 runs, the most Springer has scored in a season since his All-Star season in 2018 with Houston. He also had some big moments during the season, including a grand slam against the New York Yankees in a pivotal Canada Day win. The Blue Jays swept that four-game series and never let go of first place in the AL East.
