TORONTO -- There’s a different feeling when he walks to the plate.

Every time Vladimir Guerrero Jr. leaves the on-deck circle to make his way into the batter’s box, a sense of anticipation accompanies his stride. The 20-year-old has played in 36 games at the big league level, but he’s already shown why he belongs, and now he has a chance to bring that feeling to this year’s All-Star Game.

The rookie phenom is Toronto’s lone position player among the leaders in the first American League All-Star Game voting update, released on Monday. Guerrero ranked sixth among third basemen with 150,074 votes. The Astros' Alex Bregman is first with 630,159 votes.

Guerrero currently holds a slash line of .248/.313/.445, with seven homers, six doubles, 14 runs and 16 RBIs. He earned his first Major League accolade in mid-May when he was named AL Player of the Week.

Guerrero’s most recent home run was a game-changer for the Blue Jays, when he nabbed a Zack Britton sinker from below the strike zone and sent a three-run, go-ahead long ball out of the park at Rogers Centre against the division-leading Yankees in Toronto’s latest victory.

“That’s the feeling you have anytime he goes [to the plate] with the game on the line,” Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo said on Wednesday. “You always feel like he’s got a chance to do something like that. … That’s why Vladdy’s special. Not many guys can do that against Britton. I’ve seen Britton deal so many years with that bowling ball sinking action that he’s got.”

“We’re all chomping at the bit, like, ‘What’s going to happen now?’” Toronto starter Trent Thornton said of the feeling in the dugout when Guerrero steps to the plate. “So when he does stuff like that, it’s not really a surprise, but it’s always awesome.”
