Former Dodger slugger Pedro Guerrero is recovering and in good spirits after suffering from minor bleeding in the brain Sunday.
Dodger assistant director of public relations Yvonne Carrasco spoke to a contact at Dominican Republic newspaper Diario Libre and received the following update:
Guerrero, 58, was taken to Cedimat (Centro de Diagnósticos y Medicina Avanzada) in Santo Domingo, by his wife Roxana Guerrero de Jimenez, at around noon Sunday, after initially losing mobility in his left arm. He was placed initially in the ICU as a precautionary measure.
He has since recovered the mobility in his arm, and today he is being evaluated by neurologists. His wife remains with him and says he’s in good spirits with both hospital staff and family, and that he asked for food.
We send all our best thoughts to Guerrero and his family.
