The Toronto Blue Jays may need to swing a trade to add some depth behind Vladimir Guerrero Jr. He was removed from a game after a hit by a pitch, and it shed light on how thin the team is behind him.

Addison Barger and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. homered on consecutive pitches from Walker Buehler in the first inning and Toronto capitalized on the right-hander’s wildness to add two runs in the fourth in a 5-3 win over the Boston Red Sox.

The Blue Jays revealed Guerrero's final status ahead of Friday's bout with the Boston Red Sox, via their social media. The slugger will sit out, and backup Ernie Clement will replace him at first base. Manager John Schneider mentioned that Guerrero's X-rays were negative earlier in the day, via MLB Network radio.
