Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Homers, Primed For Big Weekend
3 weeks agoToronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. accounted for all of the team's offense in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the visiting Seattle Mariners, crushing his third home run of the season. Guerrero tied the game at one run apiece with a towering 465-foot shot off Mariners right-hander Logan Gilbert during the seventh inning. It doesn't look like Guerrero is going to recapture his 2021 Silver Slugger form, but he remains one of the most dependable assets one can find in fantasy baseball. While the 25-year-old three-time All-Star had a great spring, he's off to a sluggish start while hitting .200 (10-for-50) with a .742 OPS, three long balls, and five RBI across his first 13 regular-season outings. Guerrero looks to tee off on a Colorado Rockies pitching staff that ranks dead last in ERA (6.57), WHIP (1.78), and batting average against (.297) during a three-game weekend set starting on Friday.
