2022 Diamondbacks Reviews, #4: Daulton Varsho

Daulton Varsho was drafted 68th Overall in 2017 by the Arizona Diamondbacks. MLB Pipeline had him ranked as the 110th prospect in the class. General Manager Mike Hazen’s first draft team noticed the diamond he was though and took him early, nearly doubling the bonus value for which he could have signed at 110.

Taken out of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Varsho was described at the time as

“[having] a short, strong stroke and manages the strike zone well, giving him a chance to hit for average and power. He’s faster than most catchers, posting plus run times from home to first and showing good instincts on the base paths.
