Daulton Varsho combines Gold Glove center-field defense with growing offensive power, totaling 15 home runs despite fewer than 50 games played. Offseason shoulder surgery delayed his start until late April. He produced eight homers in 24 games and helped the team go 15-9 when in the lineup during May. A hamstring injury on May 31 sent him to the injured list until August 1. Since returning he has added seven home runs in 22 games. He was hit on the hand by a pitch; x-rays were negative and he will be monitored for soreness but no fracture.
Daulton Varsho has had a roller coaster of a season. When he's been healthy and on the field he's been doing his usual thing while patrolling center - and that's providing the Toronto Blue Jays with Gold Glove winning defence. He's also turned into one of the Blue Jays' biggest power threats at the plate this season.
He played in 24 games, hit eight home runs and throughout the month of May came through in crucial situations to help Toronto get over the .500 hump with the team going 15-9 when Varsho was in the lineup. But on May 31, he pulled up while running to first and was sent back to the IL with a hamstring injury. This one kept him on the shelf until August 1.
