The consensus top prospect in baseball by a mile, Toronto Blue Jays third base property Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will miss the next three weeks after being diagnosed with a Grade 1 oblique strain. While it was assumed Guerrero Jr. would be sent to the minors to begin the season due to service time concerns, the oblique strain now could push things back to a May debut instead since he will have to get back up to speed in terms of facing pitching. All in all, this is just a small bump along the road to stardom for Guerrero Jr. who is about as can't miss a prospect as you can get. Even if he were to come up at or around May 1, Guerrero is still fully capable of 25 homers, at least 80 RBI, and an average well above .300 given his insane contact skills.
