Daulton Varsho Scratched From Sunday's Lineup

Missed Game Due to Neck Soreness

Toronto Blue Jays catcher Daulton Varsho was a late scratch from the lineup on Sunday due to neck soreness. The Blue Jays are currently facing the Chicago White Sox and Varsho was originally scheduled to bat seventh and play catcher. No further details about Varsho's injury have been released at this time. It is unclear if he will be available for Monday's game against the White Sox.

Replacing Varsho in the Lineup

With Varsho out of the lineup, Danny Jansen will take over behind the plate and bat seventh. Jansen was originally scheduled to start Monday's game, but he will now start on Sunday instead. It is unclear if Varsho's injury will impact Jansen's playing time going forward.

Varsho's Recent Performance

Varsho has been a key part of the Blue Jays' offense this season. He is batting .273 with 10 home runs and 39 RBIs in 74 games. Varsho has also been a solid defender behind the plate, throwing out 11 of 27 attempted base stealers.

Blue Jays' Outlook

The Blue Jays are currently in second place in the American League East, 5.5 games behind the New York Yankees. The Blue Jays are 40-34 on the season and have won four of their last six games. The Blue Jays will face the White Sox in a three-game series this weekend before returning home to face the Kansas City Royals on Monday.
