Overview
- The Laser Eye Center of Miami said the clinic confirmed late Friday that Guerrero had laser vision correction and was “doing great” at a post-op visit with Dr. Gabriel Lazcano.
- Guerrero finished the 2026 season with career-low offensive numbers, hitting .260 with nine home runs and a .688 OPS as the Blue Jays fell to 79-83 and missed the playoffs.
- The procedure follows a similar offseason surgery by former Blue Jays shortstop Bo Bichette about a year earlier, but Bichette’s own season produced middling results, showing outcomes vary.
- Guerrero remains under a reported 14-year, $500 million extension and earned roughly $40.2 million this season, raising pressure on both player and club to find a performance rebound.
- There is no on-field evidence yet that the surgery will improve hitting because vision is only one factor in batting and a potential MLB labor dispute could delay when any benefits are seen; monitor spring training reports and team medical updates for signs of change.
