After trading to the Mets today, the Rays are set to make Jonny DeLuca their primary center fielder next season, replacing Siri who was previously in that role.
Jonny DeLuca, 26, has shown signs of potential despite his struggles, with remarkable speed and defense. His offensive production needs to improve, but his athleticism is promising.
Tampa Bay's baseball operations president Erik Neander expressed confidence in DeLuca's development, noting his significant improvement over the latter months of the 2024 season.
Evaluating DeLuca’s performance highlights a player who, if he can translate his minor league success to the majors, could become a productive center fielder for the Rays.
