Vladimir Guerrero Jr. needs no introduction in Major League Baseball. Since a very young age, Vladdy has established himself as one of the most consistent hitters of the game. His hits are so clean that most of the time he sends the ball out of the park.

Right now, there is probably no other player in MLB who can hit the ball as Vladdy does. However, the Blue Jays star has not developed this hitting power and technique overnight. Recently, Guerrero’s trainer revealed that during the MLB lockout, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. lost over 20 pounds of his weight.
