Vladimir Guerrero on Bench for Blue Jays Season Finale

Vladimir Guerrero is not in the starting lineup for the Toronto Blue Jays' Sunday matchup against the Reds, with Charles McAdoo drawing the start at first base. Following an AL pennant run last fall, Guerrero struggled significantly in 2026 as his OPS plummeted 160 points down to .688. Recent comments regarding his performance and contract drew backlash from the Toronto fanbase, prompting him to quickly walk those remarks back.
