Enters as pinch hitter Guerrero (knee) entered Thursday's game against the Yankees as a pinch hitter, Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star reports.

Impact Guerrero has been out of the lineup for two consecutive games due to right knee discomfort. He had an MRI done Thursday which came back clean and also gave Toronto confidence to put him on the field. Guerrero beat out a groundball for a base hit, and his ability to run down the line is another good sign for his potential return.

Toronto Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. day-to-day with right knee inflammation

Toronto Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. got good news Thursday when an MRI on his right knee showed inflammation and no structural damage

SEPTEMBER 21, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

MRI clean on right knee An MRI on Guerrero's right knee showed no structural damage and he might be available off the bench Thursday against the Yankees, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Guerrero was scratched from the Blue Jays' lineup Wednesday -- and is not starting Thursday -- because of lingering right knee discomfort, but this latest round of imaging scans have confirmed that he is merely dealing with inflammation and won't require an extended break. Spencer Horwitz will get the start at first base in Thursday's series finale at Yankee Stadium, but it sounds like Guerrero could be a full-go for the Jays' three-game weekend set versus Tampa Bay.

Scratched with sore knee Guerrero was scratched from the lineup Wednesday versus the Yankees due to right knee discomfort, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.

Impact This knee discomfort has been a lingering issue for Guerrero, but manager John Schneider said it's only soreness -- nothing structural -- and he is considered day-to-day. The 24-year-old slugger was slated to serve as the Blue Jays' designated hitter Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium. Spencer Horwitz will now fill that role as Cavan Biggio covers first base and Whit Merrifield enters the lineup at second base.

It marked the first baseman's third consecutive game with a home run and his second game in a row with two hits.

Slugs 22nd homer Guerrero went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's loss to the Rangers.

Impact The first baseman gave Toronto an early lead when he took Nathan Eovaldi deep in the first inning, but Texas surged ahead in the top of the second and never looked back. Guerrero is scuffling again in September, slashing .224/.333/.388 through 13 games with two of his 22 homers, but with 86 RBI on the season and 15 games left on the Blue Jays' schedule, he still has an outside shot at his second career 100-RBI campaign.
