Rest-of-Season Projections
Signs $1.3M deal with Japanese club
Guerrero signed a one-year, $1.3 million contract Sunday with the Chunichi Dragons of the Japanese Central League, Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
It wasn't long ago that Guerrero was viewed as the next highly touted Cuban import set to make a splash in the MLB, but due to the Dodgers' existing infield depth along with his defensive shortcomings, lack of plate discipline and health woes, the 30-year-old never seemed to find anything more than fleeting success in his three years in the organization. He spent the entire 2016 campaign in the minors before getting released by the Dodgers last June, and didn't latch on anywhere thereafter. While Guerrero's natural power should allow him to thrive against lower-caliber pitching in Japan, considering his advancing age and previously failures in the MLB, it looks unlikely that he'll resurface in the big leagues again.

2014
Guerrero continued to be a bit of an enigma in 2015. After seeing his slash line rise to .370/.407/.815 on May 13, Guerrero began to finally get regular playing time between second base, third base, and the outfield. Unfortunately, that's when things quickly went south as pitchers started to take advantage of his aggressive tendencies and not give him fastballs down the middle. Due to his dwindling production and a lack of an obvious defensive fit, Guerrero seemed to find himself in former manager Don Mattingly's doghouse and he ended up finishing batting just .233/.261/.434 on the season. The .201 ISO indicates that he has real power, but Guerrero also walked in just three percent of his plate appearances and he's below average defensively wherever he plays. If he stays with the Dodgers then he'll again fill a utility role, but look for the club to explore a way to ship him elsewhere.
