Why Tarik Skubal Dominates the 2027 MLB Free-Agent Class and Who Could Upend Him
Here we have two occasionally electric, extremely flawed center fielders. Varsho gets the edge based on his glove, an area in which Grisham has curiously declined. The Jays’ center fielder has also cut his strikeout rate by more than 10 percentage points, one of the biggest drops in the sport this year. How that impacts his power production remains to be seen, but the bar is lower for Varsho just because he’s capable of brilliance in the grass.
Grisham was another of the qualifying offer acceptors from last winter. He’s off to a slow start with the Yankees, though the underlying metrics think a rebound is inevitable. Grisham does a few very important things — walk, not chase, square up the ball, hit it hard — very well. That gives him a high floor … as a center fielder. A bounce-back in his defense would go a long way; it was telling that Grisham was wary of testing the open market this past offseason.
