Gabby

Guerrero

The 26-year-old spent the 2019 season in the Marlins’ organization where he slashed .253/.270/.401 with 11 homers, 51 RBI and a jaw-dropping 104/7 K/BB ratio over 114 games between Double-A Jacksonville and Triple-A New Orleans. He’ll add depth in the minor leagues for the Jays.

Guerrero made his major league debut with the Reds last season, going 3-for-18 with a homer. He’s turned into a fine minor league slugger, but it still seems unlikely that he’ll make much of a contribution in the majors because of his OBP issues. He did pick the right team as a minor league free agent, though.

Guerrero was recently outrighted off the Reds 40-man roster, and he elected free agency. The nephew of Hall of Famer Vladimir Guerrero and cousin of top prospect Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has struggled with plate discipline and had a .500 OPS in 18 plate appearances during a cup of coffee with the Reds in 2018. He’ll likely spend the 2019 season with Triple-A New Orleans.

The 24-year-old outfielder is now off the Reds’ 40-man roster. Guerrero batted just .167 with a .500 OPS over his first 18 major league plate appearances in 2018.

Tucker Barnhart is at first base and Curt Casali is at catcher. Billy Hamilton is also getting a breather in this one, with Gabby Guerrero handling center field.

Vlad’s nephew flashed some power in Double-A this year (17 homers) after a couple of disappointing seasons in that regard. He still doesn’t figure to have much of a future in the majors, but he had a nice moment tonight.

The 22-year-old nephew of Vladimir Guerrero hasn’t developed as the club had hoped. He hit a disappointing .234/.281/.383 with nine homers and 54 RBI between Double-A Mobile and Triple-A Reno in 2016. He’s talented enough that another club may be willing to take a chance on him.

Guerrero, who is the nephew of former MLB star Vladimir Guerrero, was claimed off of waivers from the Diamondbacks last week and now finds himself as a free agent. He struggled with the bat in 2016, slashing .234/.281/.383 across two minor league levels, but possesses enough talent that he should find another club willing to give him a shot.

The nephew of Vladimir Guerrero, Gabby batted just .234/.281/.383 between Double- and Triple-A this past season. He’s had back-to-back disappointing seasons but will turn just 23 in a couple weeks. Obviously the Reds think he’s still got a shot to make an impact.

The Reds non-tendered Guerrero after claiming him off waivers last month, but he’ll remain with the organization. Vlad’s nephew hit just .234/.281/.383 across two minor league levels in 2016.
