Wilton Guerrero

Organization Prospect Rankings

• 
  Ranked Pittsburgh Pirates #30 prospect in 2026
  BA Grade/Risk: 50/Extreme
  
  Adjusted Grade: 30
  
  Track Record: Guerrero Jr. is the latest member of the Guerrero family to join a major league club, signing with the Pirates for $1.9 million in 2026 via the Dominican Republic. His father Wilton Guerrero—the brother of Vladimir Guerrero Sr. and uncle of Vlad Jr.—was primarily an infielder during his big league career from 1996 to 2004 with the Dodgers, Expos, Reds and Royals.
  
  Scouting Report: At 5-foot-10, 165 pounds, Guerrero Jr. is built like his father with a small-to-medium frame packed with quick-twitch athleticism. He’s a plus-plus runner with hand-eye coordination that’s evident at the plate and in the field. He ranges well at shortstop, where he has good instincts and a strong arm to project to stick at the position. On the younger end of the class, Guerrero will need to get stronger to drive the ball with more impact, but the bat speed for his size is solid and he makes contact at a high clip, with a high baseball IQ that’s no surprise given his upbringing.
  
  The Future: Guerrero Jr. will hope to continue a recent trend of strong Dominican Summer League debuts from high-profile Pirates signings following sturdy showings from the likes of Edward Florentino, Darell Morel and Johan De Los Santos.
