Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Sitting Wednesday
6 years agoToronto Blue Jays third baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday. Brandon Drury is at the hot corner and is hitting seventh against Twins starting pitcher Kyle Gibson. Teoscar Hernandez is also taking the day off, with right fielder Socrates Brito playing right field and batting eighth. Vlad Jr. so far hasn't lived up to the hype in his first major league season, hitting .162 (6-for-37) with no homers and only one RBI. The powerful phenom should turn it on eventually, though, so stay patient. Drury has been better lately but is still hitting only .213 with five home runs and nine RBI on the season. He's a deep sleeper for DFS, while Brito should be ignored.
