Toronto Blue Jays star first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was scratched from the lineup prior to Saturday’s game against the host Pittsburgh Pirates due to left wrist discomfort, although he could return as soon as Sunday, his manager said.

Guerrero was slated to serve as the designated hitter and bat third before being scratched shortly more than an hour before first pitch.

“There’s just some soreness there, so we’ll see how he is tomorrow,” manager John Schneider said Saturday after the Blue Jays’ 8-2 win.

Cavan Biggio batted eighth and played first base, with Brandon Belt hitting sixth and serving as the DH. Belt doubled twice, walked twice, scored three times and drove in two runs.

Guerrero, 24, was 1-for-4 with an RBI in Friday’s 4-0 win over the Pirates.

Guerrero is batting .318 with seven homers and 21 RBIs in 33 games this season. He has belted 111 homers in 537 games over four-plus big league seasons.
