Blue Jays top prospect Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has been diagnosed with a left oblique strain and will be sidelined for three weeks. (Hazel Mae on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Welp. This is a major bummer for the consensus top prospect in all of baseball. Toronto can now take things very slowly with Guerrero, which means it's very up in the air when he makes his big league debut. The 19-year-old will probably play in extended spring training for a while before heading to Triple-A. Our best guess at a debut date would therefore be early to mid-May. Since February 1st Vlad has had a NFBC ADP of nearly 42. That figures to drop a round or two in the coming weeks.
