In 2025, Guerrero spent his season in the Dominican Summer League in which he finished with 1 home run and 10 RBIs in 31 games for the Mets to go along with a .233 batting average and .333 on base percentage.
The young slugger will now look to find himself a new contract, due to his age and last name, he should be able to find himself another minor league deal on a team willing to give him a second chance.
While his statistics in the DSL have not been great, they are not terrible either and he could still turn into a solid player one day if he continues to work at it.
The Blue Jays could even look to bring on Guerrero and have the two brothers in the same organization.
