We got some Blue Jays news we didn’t want to hear on the weekend, finding out that Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will miss at least the next three weeks recovering from a grade one strain to his left oblique.
The news is definitely unfortunate and I don’t blame fans for being disappointed, but in the grand scheme of things it really isn’t that big of a deal. It more or less puts to bed the discussion around whether or not he should break camp with the team, as he’ll need time to get up to speed even after he’s healthy, and he probably won’t be back on the diamond before Opening Day anyway.
