The Toronto Blue Jays locked up Vladimir Guerrero Jr. with that massive $500 million deal about a year ago, betting their future on their young superstar.
Now they’re making another key Vladdy decision — this time involving a bobblehead that’s absolutely perfect.
The “Born Ready” Bobblehead
The Blue Jays announced their May 25 promotional giveaway, and it’s going to be special. They’re calling it the “Born Ready” Vladdy bobblehead, and it captures one of baseball’s most heartwarming images.
The bobblehead recreates that famous photo of young Vladdy with his father during Vladimir Guerrero Sr.’s days with the Montreal Expos. You know the one — little Vladito on the field with his Hall of Fame dad.

The Blue Jays haven’t revealed how many bobbleheads they’ll distribute, but you’ll want to show up early for this one. It’s going to be a collector’s item.
Perfect Timing
That Monday game isn’t exactly a marquee matchup, so the bobblehead should help draw fans to the ballpark. Sometimes you need something special to get people excited about a weeknight game.
But this Guerrero Jr. bobblehead is exactly that kind of special.
The “Born Ready” theme couldn’t be more fitting. It’s tough to imagine better baseball genes than what Vladito inherited from his dad. From that little kid standing on a baseball diamond to the superstar anchoring Toronto’s lineup, he’s lived up to every bit of the hype.
The Blue Jays know what they’ve got in Guerrero Jr., and this bobblehead celebrates not just where he is now, but where it all started.
