Mets consider $500 million offer for Guerrero Jr

Vladimir Guerrero Jr., a four-time All-Star and top hitter, is entering a crucial contract phase with the Toronto Blue Jays. After failing to reach an agreement before his self-imposed deadline, he is now seeking a $500 million deal. Recent reports indicate the New York Mets have made a significant offer, but it may not meet Guerrero's expectations. The actual value of the Mets' offer is estimated between $400 million and $450 million due to deferrals. The Mets face a key decision regarding Guerrero's potential signing, especially with Pete Alonso's future uncertain. This situation follows the Mets' recent signing of Juan Soto to a record contract, raising questions about their spending strategy.
