We knew that Vladimir Guerrero Jr’s struggles weren’t going to last forever, and it wasn’t just because he’s been the most hyped prospect in franchise history. The proof has been there, even when his batting average had dipped to .146 on May 10th, not that long ago.
In my mind, the most positive sign through his early struggles was how hard he was hitting the ball when he was making contact, even if they turned into outs. We saw it right from his first game, as he made solid contact in his second and third at-bats, only to fly out.
