Vlad Guerrero Jr. celebrated a triple in the Dominican Winter League with a seductive dance

(Clair, Michael)

Vlad Guerrero was known for his rocket arm, the ability to hit anything thrown near the vicinity of the plate and his tight, tapered pants. Vlad Guerrero Jr., the No. 3 prospect in baseball, is already showing that he's got plenty of his own style. After bashing 13 home runs with a .910 OPS across two Minor League levels this year, the 18-year-old has taken his talents to the Leones del Escogido in the Dominican Winter League this offseason. 
After lacing a grounder into the corner on Saturday night against the Toros del Este, Guerrero raced around the bases for a triple. And when he got to third base, he knew just how to celebrate: with a glorious dance. That's some Shakira-esque hip-rotation.

Guerrero Sr. was one of the most fun players in the league and Junior is looking like he's doing a great job following in his father's footsteps -- even as he's doing it his own way.
