Baseballs #1 prospect, Vladimir Guerrero Jr, showed up to Blue Jays training camp a day early and was all the baseball world could talk about yesterday.
From mashing baseballs in batting practice, to playing catch with fellow infielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr, to just walking onto the field, you can bet the video made it to Twitter.
Today’s focus wasn’t on mashing baseballs out of the park for the highly anticipated prospect though. According to Blue Jays hitting coach Guillermo Martinez:
“his line drives go over the fence.” Martinez added that Guerrero isn’t trying to “elevate. He’s not trying to hit the school (beyond the outfield fence) on purpose.
