Daulton Varsho Undergoes Wrist Surgery

Houston Astros outfielder Daulton Varsho recently had arthroscopic surgery on his left wrist, effectively ending his 2026 campaign prematurely. The team revealed that he attempted to play through a persistent wrist injury dating back to the period before his trade to Houston, though the discomfort eventually became too severe to manage.

During his brief 41-game stint with the club, the pending free agent struggled offensively across 151 at-bats, finishing with a .172 batting average, five home runs, 14 runs batted in, a .224 on-base percentage, and a .535 OPS. Given these underwhelming numbers and his expiring contract, it remains doubtful that he will return to the franchise for the 2027 season.
