17-year-old international prospect Vladi Miguel Guerrero, son of Hall of Famer Vladimir Guerrero and brother of Blue Jays star Vladimir Guerrero Jr., is gearing up to join the New York Mets in January for an anticipated $120,000 signing, according to sources.
While Vladi Miguel may not carry the same level of prospect hype as his older sibling, there’s considerable intrigue about his potential.

Scouts note his impressive bat speed and the potential for plus-raw power, primarily as a power-hitting prospect.
However, he might share similar concerns as his brother in terms of body maintenance and athleticism.
Vladi Miguel’s addition to the Mets’ farm system marks their second notable sibling acquisition after obtaining Luisangel Acuña, brother of Braves star Ronald Acuña Jr., earlier this year.
