Daulton Varsho Could Return on Saturday for Blue Jays
Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider said that there's a chance that outfielder Daulton Varsho (wrist) could be ready to return from the 10-day injured list on Saturday when he's first eligible, but he will "have to do a lot today and tomorrow," according to Shi Davidi of Sportsnet. If Varsho isn't activated this weekend, he may need to go on a short minor-league rehab assignment, consisting of a game or two. The 29-year-old left-handed-hitting center fielder is recovering from inflammation in his left wrist, but his return appears to be on the horizon. Before landing on the IL, Varsho was hitting a very mediocre .256/.331/.408 with a .738 OPS, five home runs, 17 RBI, 27 runs scored, and five stolen bases for the Blue Jays in 64 games across 236 plate appearances in his fourth season with the organization. Until he returns, the light-hitting Myles Straw should continue to see most of the playing time in center field for Toronto. Varsho is only rostered in 23% of Yahoo leagues at the moment.
