Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero Jr. blasts second-level homer vs. Diamondbacks
The post Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero Jr. blasts second-level homer vs. Diamondbacks appeared first on ClutchPoints. Toronto Blue Jays star first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. blasted a second-level home run to put his team up 2-0 against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The four-time All-Star has had a relatively quiet season by his standards, but he's still on pace to make the Midsummer Classic once again. The Blue Jays are right in the thick of the playoff race at 38-33, trying to keep up with several teams in the American League East. Advertisement To get back to the postseason for the third time in four years, Toronto will need Guerrero Jr. to hit another gear in the second half of the season, which is usually a reliable bet. Fortunately, the 26-year-old showed a very positive sign with this no-doubter against Diamondbacks pitcher Brandon Pfaadt. The Blue Jays are in the middle of the pack in terms of their prowess at the plate and on the mound. That said, there are plenty of talented players on this roster, especially in the lineup, who should continue improving as the season progresses. And it will be a season-long war for the division crown, with how things are shaping up. The New York Yankees currently lead the AL East at 42-29, but have been in a rut recently. Meanwhile, the Tampa Bay Rays and Boston Red Sox have been on a tear and are above .500. Boston may have just completed a shocking trade of three-time All-Star Rafael Devers, but it still has a talented roster capable of sneaking into the Wild Card. Speaking of the Wild Card, plenty of dangerous teams like the Cleveland Guardians and Seattle Mariners are lurking. Advertisement Overall, it's a long season, and the Blue Jays are currently undergoing an evaluation period. They will need to decide whether to be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline. The front office will very likely be a buyer, especially with the team's current spot and the fact that Guerrero Jr. and plenty of other key contributors on the roster are squarely in their primes. And Toronto could use some more quality arms, specifically in their bullpen, and another power hitter before July 31st. Overall, Guerrero Jr. showcased his trademark power on Tuesday. The first baseman is the clear face of this franchise, and this team will go as far as he does. It's a long road to October, but Toronto is still firmly in the hunt, and the time to move up in the AL East is now, with the way the Yankees have been struggling.

Blue Jays' Daulton Varsho leaves game with concerning injury
The post Blue Jays' Daulton Varsho leaves game with concerning injury appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Toronto Blue Jays used a three-game winning streak to make their way into second place in the American League East. Unfortunately, John Schneider's job just got even harder with another injury. Veteran outfielder Daulton Varsho exited Saturday's game against the Athletics in the third inning after leaving while holding his left leg. Myles Straw took his spot in center field. Advertisement Varsho was caught stretching between second and third after hitting a double, but dropped between the bases. He came up holding his left leg and appeared to be in 'serious pain', according to reporter Keegan Matheson. Schneider turned to Straw to fill the hole in the field after Varsho went out, but fans are concerned. Varsho made his 2025 debut in late April and quickly settled into the Blue Jays offense. After just 93 at-bats, Varsho is tied for the team-lead in home runs with eight. George Springer hit two solo shots on Saturday to join him and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. at the top of Toronto's stat sheet. The one silver lining to Varsho's injury is that it is not in the same area as the one that delayed his start to the season. The 28-year-old was on Schneider's injured list with a shoulder injury he suffered in 2024. Varsho made his impact felt immediately, making what might end up being the best catch of Toronto's season. However, Varsho's new injury against the Athletics could hold him out for another extended stretch. If it is a hamstring injury, the six-year veteran could be out for a month. Advertisement His exit comes at a bad time for Schneider's team. The Blue Jays are in second place in the division, but the Tampa Bay Rays are right next to them in the standings. At this point in their season, every game matters. Toronto will try to win their fourth straight by beating the Athletics. However, fans will hold their breaths until they get an update on Varsho's health.
