Today we discuss Daulton Varsho and his future with the Toronto Blue Jays. Many falls still have a bitter taste in their mouths after Varsho’s performance in the World Series, but he is still a valueable player for any major league club. The Blue Jays are still looking for Varsho to capture the offensive firepower he showcased in 2022, but he has been in MLB for six seasons, and hasn’t been able to show consistency offensively over 162 games. In this episode, we break down how we perceive Daulton Varsho not only for 2026, but for a possible extension with the Blue Jays organization. We provide you with the most up to date news, storylines and analysis right here on Locked On Blue Jays.
