Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero Jr. out 3 weeks with oblique strain
Toronto Blue Jays top prospect Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has been diagnosed with a strained left oblique and is expected to be sidelined for three weeks.
What It Means:
Guerrero Jr. suffered the injury on Friday. He wasn't expected to make his MLB debut until mid-to-late April due to baseball's service time rules, but the injury could push that date back. The promising talent turns 20 later this month.
Vlad Jr. turned in a phenomenal .381/.437/.636 batting line with 20 home runs, 78 RBI, and 67 runs scored over 95 games (408 plate appearances) last season across four different levels of the Blue Jays' minor league system.
