Guerrero (back) was available to pinch hit Sunday and will likely rejoin the starting lineup Tuesday against the Red Sox, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports. The first baseman was getting ready to hit in the ninth inning when the game was close, but he was kept on the bench after the Yankees erupted for five runs in the top of the frame. Guerrero will benefit from Monday's off day after sitting out the last two contests with lower-back tightness. He's batting just .184 (7-for-38) to begin June, with his homer drought standing at 22 games.

Vladimir Guerrero: Breaking News
Not ready to start Sunday
Guerrero (back) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports. Guerrero will get a second straight day to recuperate from lower-back tightness, an issue that cropped up during Friday's 8-5 win in the series opener. Charles McAdoo will receive the start at first base in place of Guerrero, who is being viewed as day-to-day heading into the Blue Jays' series in Boston that begins Tuesday.
Managing back tightness
Guerrero won't play in Saturday's game against the Yankees due to back tightness, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports. Manager John Schneider said Saturday that Guerrero began having problems with his back Friday, so the Jays will sit him down as a precaution. Schneider added that the slugging first baseman is already beginning to feel better, so an extended absence doesn't seem likely. Charles McAdoo will get the nod at first base and bat eighth while Guerrero rests.
