Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Takes Swings Thursday
2 years agoDespite not being in Thursday's starting lineup against the New York Yankees, Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (knee) took some swings in the batting cages and also did some running. It is to be determined if he'll be available to pinch hit on Thursday night. Guerrero's MRI exam came back clean on Wednesday, so he's currently being considered day-to-day and could return for fantasy managers on Friday. Once he returns to Toronto's lineup, he needs to be back in all starting fantasy lineups as well. The left-handed-hitting Brandon Belt is getting the nod at first base again on Thursday with Guerrero out. The 24-year-old has a robust .312 average (49-for-179) with 11 doubles, seven home runs and 26 RBI so far through 40 games played.
