Toronto Blue Jays star Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will return to the lineup Wednesday despite recent left lower-back tightness, answering whether the slugger would play again this season.
Guerrero was initially expected to sit Game 1 of Toronto’s doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles, but the club made a late change before first pitch. He will bat second and play first base as the Blue Jays try to stave off mathematical elimination from the American League wild-card race.
MLB.com’s Keegan Matheson reported the last-minute development from Oriole Park at Camden Yards, where Guerrero was added to the lineup shortly before Wednesday afternoon’s opener.
The following story is in development and will be updated shortly.
“Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is making a late, surprising return to the Blue Jays’ lineup to open Wednesday’s doubleheader against the Orioles.”
