Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is once again an all-star.
It’s the fifth straight year the Toronto Blue Jays slugger has made the American League all-star team, and the fourth time he’ll be the starting first baseman.
He beat out New York Yankees star Paul Goldschmidt for the top spot, garnering 75 per cent of the vote to take the starting spot at first base.
It’s the second consecutive fan election for Guerrero, and his fourth fan election in five seasons to join Hall of Famer Roberto Alomar and José Bautista as the only Blue Jays with four fan elections.
