Vladimir Guerrero Jr. of the Toronto Blue Jays has earned the American League Silver Slugger Award for first base, marking his second time receiving this honor. In a standout 2024 season, he achieved a .323 batting average, hit 30 home runs, and drove in 103 runs, while also making his fourth All-Star appearance.

As the Blue Jays seek to improve after a disappointing last-place finish in the American League East, they are eyeing free agent Juan Soto to bolster their lineup alongside Guerrero Jr., who is also up for a potential contract extension.
