As the lower seed, Guerrero had to face Ronald Acuña Jr. in the first round. Guerrero is a rising star, but Acuña Jr. is one of the best players in baseball. Acuña Jr. has more power than Guerrero, and he is also a better hitter. Guerrero will need to hit a lot of home runs to beat Acuña Jr., but it is possible. Guerrero is a talented hitter, and he has the potential to surprise people. It will be an interesting matchup to watch.
