Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Not Ready to Return on Monday Against Marlins
Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (elbow) is not in the team's starting lineup for Monday's series opener in Toronto against the visiting Miami Marlins. Lenyn Sosa will start at first for the Jays and will bat ninth against Marlins right-hander Janson Junk. Guerrero is not ready to return to action after he left Sunday's series finale prematurely against the Pittsburgh Pirates after he was hit by a pitch on his right elbow. Thankfully, X-rays came back negative, so he's being considered day-to-day for now. Fantasy managers will want to check back to see if Vlad is ready to return for Game 2 of the series on Tuesday at the Rogers Centre. The 27-year-old five-time All-Star and two-time Silver Slugger winner has only three home runs on the season through 188 at-bats, but he's hitting a strong .287 (54-for-188) with a .386 on-base percentage, 22 RBI, 32 runs, and four steals in 53 games played. Sosa should be ignored in DFS lineups out of the nine-hole for Toronto.
