Toronto Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is set to make his Dominican winter league debut with Escogido on Tuesday, according to MLB insider Hector Gomez.
Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi and Ben Nicholson-Smith reported last week that the 21-year-old intends to play third base in winter league in hopes of retaking the hot corner spot with the Blue Jays.
Guerrero Jr. was moved off third base after reporting to summer camp for the 2020 season overweight, but appears to have recommitted to fitness this off-season.
