Blue Jays vs. Phillies - News - August 07, 2026 | FOX Sports

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. - Returns to action Saturday Guerrero (hamstring) returned to action Saturday evening against the Phillies and homered in his first at-bat against Aaron Nola.

Impact Guerrero has been nursing hamstring and back issues in the midst of a terribly disappointing season. The homer on Saturday night is his seventh of the season - all on the road. With two hits in his first four plate appearances on Saturday night, his slugging percentage remains paltry at .359.

Aaron Nola - Diagnosed with knee contusion Nola was removed from Saturday's game against the Blue Jays with a right knee contusion, per Charlotte Varnes of The Athletic.

Impact Nola left Saturday's game and was determined to have a right knee contusion. The X-rays that the 33-year-old took were negative, and he will be evaluated further. With the Phillies already thin on starting pitching depth after Andrew Painter (hamstring) was banged up in his previous start, they cannot afford Nola to miss multiple starts.
