Vlad Jr. injured in Minor League game

Blue Jays prospect Vladimir Guerrero Jr. left Wednesday’s game against the Akron RubberDucks with an injury. The Blue Jays’ No. 1 prospect, and the No. 2 overall prospect according to MLB Pipeline, beat out an infield single in the fourth and then advanced to second on a sharp single to right field by Cavan Biggio. Guerrero had to slide into second, and when he got up from the slide, he immediately signaled that he wanted to come out of the game, then walked slowly off the field under his own power. He was replaced on the basepaths by Gunnar Heidt.
