Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider announced Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will stay in the prime batting order. The choice holds despite recent struggles and inconsistency from Guerrero at the plate. Schneider clarified why the club will not move him down in the lineup for now.
The team supports Guerrero heading into the crucial playoff push in the AL playoff race. This backing arrives during their series against the Royals. Toronto continues its stretch in the American League standings with Guerrero in his top batting spot.
