Lourdes Gurriel To Be Exclusive DH In Buffalo
6 years agoAfter being sent down to Triple-A Buffalo with Eric Sogard getting the promotion to the big leagues, the Blue Jays will play middle infielder Lourdes Gurriel exclusively as a designated hitter. The 25-year-old has had an abysmal start to the 2019 season and is reportedly not comfortable to play the field at the moment. Gurriel hit .175 in 13 games this season before his demotion. Should he find his swing again in Triple-A, his status in the majors could be pivotal in terms of fantasy baseball. If he stays away from playing the field, he'd likely become strictly a utility player, losing eligibility at multiple positions.
