The Toronto Blue Jays had an incredible 2025 season that ended with a Game 7 loss in the World Series to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Their run to the Fall Classic was made possible in big thanks to first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Guerrero had a record-breaking postseason, batting .397 with a 1.289 OPS, eight home runs and 15 RBIs. His home run total marked the most in one postseason in Blue Jays history.
He was fantastic in the regular season as well, as he played in 156 games, posting a .292 batting average to go with an .848 OPS, 23 long balls and 84 RBIs.
Due to his stellar play in 2025, Guerrero was named to the AL All-Star team, the fifth time he’s been selected in his seven-year career.
Guerrero’s accolades for this past season didn’t stop with his All-Star selection, however. On Thursday, at the MLB Awards Show in Las Vegas, Guerrero was named as the first baseman for the All-MLB First Team. He was honored alongside his teammate, shortstop Bo Bichette, who was picked to the All-MLB Second Team.
The Blue Jays reacted to this incredible news with a post on the team’s X account.
“The best of the best 👏 Vladdy and Bo are named to the All-MLB Teams!,” the Blue Jays posted.
This was the third time in his career that Guerrero has been given this honor, as he was also on the All-MLB First Team in 2021 and 2024.
Blue Jays fans have been ecstatic with the way their franchise first baseman has played, and they will be able to do so for years to come. In April, the 26-year-old signed a massive 14-year, $500 million contract extension that will keep him with Toronto through the 2039 season.
Guerrero will hope to lead the Blue Jays to many more deep postseason runs before his time in Toronto is up.
