Report: Top MLB Prospect Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to Miss 3 Weeks with Injury

Toronto Blue Jays star prospect Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will reportedly miss three weeks with a Grade 1 left oblique strain, according to Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.

That may address the controversy over his service time, however. Per ESPN.com: "To retain team control of Guerrero for another year, the Jays would have had to keep him in the minors for 15 days to start the season. After he hit .381 with 20 homers and 78 RBIs while rocketing through four levels of minor league ball last year, there would have been many critics of the move.
