Last week I wrote about Vladimir Guerrero Jr‘s 2019 season and compared it to what Josh Donaldson has done for the Atlanta Braves this year. While some folks thought I was setting up unfair expectations for the rookie with the way Donaldson has bounced back this season, I actually wanted to highlight just how well Vlad Jr has done overall, especially since the All-Star break.
While he’s not quite living up to the standards of someone like Donaldson (and that’s okay as a 20-year-old rookie), I was curious how Guerrero Jr’s season compares to the rest of the third basemen in the American League.
