All it takes is 30 seconds in Toronto's clubhouse to see that Daulton Varsho has fit right in with the Blue Jays.

Sitting in front of his corner locker at Rogers Centre, he can be found quietly chuckling along as fellow outfielders George Springer and Whit Merrifield gently rib the 26-year-old Varsho."Yeah, be honest, Daulton," said Merrifield."You hate your teammates, you hate everybody," said Merrifield, cracking Varsho up more.

"He brings so much every day," said Blue Jays manager John Schneider. "There's always a chance for a home run, there's a chance for stolen bases, there's a chance for a great play.Arizona called Varsho up to the major leagues on July 30, 2020. He finished that season with a .188 batting average and three home runs, but he's grown offensively since then. He has a career average of .231, with 53 home runs and 35 stolen bases.

"He's been up and down offensively but we knew that about him," said Schneider. "He's understanding how he's being pitched to a little bit and he's trying to get the ball down in the zone a little bit more as opposed to up." "It was nice to be out there all together and understanding what balls we can get to and having the non-communication things that we're able to do," said Varsho. "It's nice being able to have guys out there that have been out there for awhile and being able to learn from them and be able to roam together."
