Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Still Out With Elbow Injury
Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (elbow) will miss a second straight start on Tuesday due to a right-elbow contusion against the visiting Miami Marlins, according to MLB.com. Lenyn Sosa will make another start at first base at Rogers Centre and will bat ninth against Marlins right-hander Sergio Alcantara. Guerrero is day-to-day after being hit by a pitch in Sunday's loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates, and he was available off the bench in Monday's series opener against the Fish, although he did not get into the game. Fantasy managers will want to check back on Wednesday to see if Vlad is back in action for the Jays. Those setting DFS lineups will want to steer clear of Sosa at the bottom of the batting order. He's also hitless in four career at-bats against Alcantara. Guerrero is in the 81st percentile in xwOBA on the year and is hitting a solid .287 (54-for-188), but he has just three home runs in 53 games and is in just the 57th percentile in hard-hit rate. There's still time to turn things around, but fantasy managers may begin to panic soon.
