It's not (entirely) his fault. People like to crap on Vladito (and it has been a bit deserved, but not this year).

Default Vladimir Guerrero, Jr.

Just four days ago, I commented on how it would be nice to see Vlad get his OPS up from .841 to .900 by season’s end. Welp, he’s already halfway there, up to .870 five games later.

Added a Vlad. Playing much better. Let’s see if he stays in Toronto.

This makes me jealous. That’s all I have to say about that.

he has an OPS around .950 since May 1. .900 for the year is very attainable.

Those are some nice cards guys. I know I’ve just tucked away all my rare Vladdy.
Nice to see him hitting his stride.

Considering that he’s now at .880, he could get to .900 next week. Then he’d just need to maintain it, of course.

Overall, he’s now at .305/20/66 with the .880, which puts him on pace for…

.305/31/101

He’ll have his lulls and hot streaks along the way. But if this is the new Vladdy, he could very well do better than that pace.

Vlad's numbers would be off the charts in another stratosphere in this 30 game stretch, but he certainly went "cold" with his power numbers after Cole hit him on his fingers.

A quick look at the boxscores shows this....

6 HRs in 37ABs (8 games : June 21-June 29)
0 HRs in 45ABs (12 games starting with NYY & Cole)
8 HRs in 46ABs (12 games : July 14-July 29)

He's certainly dialed-in right now. It will be interesting to see how teams choose to pitch to him as he also has 3 IBB in his past 7 games after having 1 all season.

Leading the entire league with a 1.709 OPS over the past 15 days.

I forgot about him getting plunked...

I looked at his monthly stats, every month except April he has hit over .300 with an OPS over .900.

The homerun power just started showing up in June though. Really curious to see what the next two months look like for him.

I’m just glad that this fat, poorly conditioned person is finally hitting in minor league parks again. Refreshing to see.
