Blue Jays Put Vladimir Guerrero Jr. on Injured List with Concussion
The move clears a 40-man roster spot after Estrada posted a 5.54 ERA in 13 innings this season, the club said.
- On Saturday, the Toronto Blue Jays placed first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. on the seven-day injured list with a concussion following Friday's game against the New York Yankees.
- Guerrero suffered the injury in the sixth inning Friday after being kneed in the head by Yankees shortstop George Lombard Jr. during a baserunning collision at third base.
- Manager John Schneider noted the first baseman had "a little bit of a headache" after the game, and Guerrero continued experiencing symptoms Saturday, triggering the concussion protocol.
- Outfielder Daz Cameron replaced Guerrero on the active roster for Saturday's game against New York. The Blue Jays also designated pitcher Lazaro Estrada for assignment to open a 40-man roster spot.
- Toronto hosts the second game of the three-game series against the Yankees at 3:07 p.m. EDT today, adjusting their lineup without Guerrero, who was batting.263 with seven homers and 46 RBIs.
