Minor League phenom Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will take another big step towards the Majors, as he will be promoted to Triple-A Buffalo upon returning from the DL with a left knee injury, The Toronto Sun reports.
Guerrero is the No. 1 prospect in baseball according to MLB Pipeline. He has not played since June 6 due to a strained patella tendon, but has been rehabbing in Florida. Prior to his injury, Guerrero was hitting an unprecedented .407/.457/.667 with 11 home runs and 55 RBIs in 204 at-bats for Double-A New Hampshire.
The 19-year-old has taken the league by storm, showing flashes of his father's Hall of Fame play.
