Vladimir Guerrero Diagnosed with Elbow Contusion After HBP

Vladimir Guerrero was removed from Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Pirates in the fifth inning after being hit by a pitch on his right elbow. X-rays returned negative, confirming a diagnosis of a right elbow contusion. Before his exit, he had scored a run and drawn two walks. Manager John Schneider indicated that Guerrero is a possibility to return to the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins, despite the early exit in what was a difficult day for the Blue Jays.
