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.

Lashes double in return Guerrero went 1-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Friday's win over the Cardinals.

Impact With the Blue Jays down 1-0, Guerrero led off the sixth inning with a line-drive rocket off the wall in left-center field that left his bat at 112.4 mph. The 27-year-old slugger sat out Wednesday's game due to a sore hamstring, but after Thursday's off day he appears to be fully recovered. It's been a tough campaign for Guerrero, who is stuck in a 14-game homer drought and has just six long balls on the year, but Friday's hard contact offers some hope he might be able to close out the season on a high note.

Absent from Wednesday's lineup Guerrero (hamstring) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Nationals.

Expected to sit Wednesday Guerrero (hamstring) is unlikely to play Wednesday against the Nationals, Ian Quillen of MLB.com reports.

Impact The Blue Jays have a scheduled day off Thursday, so Guerrero would get extra time to recover from the right hamstring tightness that caused him to exit Tuesday's loss in the fourth inning. The fact that Toronto is well out of the playoff picture provides less incentive to rush him back into the lineup as well. Kazuma Okamoto, who came off the bench to replace Guerrero on Tuesday, could slide across the diamond to fill in for him again Wednesday.
