"Jimenez signed a minor league deal with the Blue Jays this past winter after a short stint with Toronto to finish the 2025 season in Buffalo. The right-handed hitter hasn't appeared in a big league game since 2024, as injuries have kept the former White Sox top prospect on the sidelines for most of his career."
"Across six seasons in the big leagues, Jimenez owns a .269/.318/.462 slash line with 95 home runs, 298 RBIs, and a .780 OPS with a 112 OPS+. He last suited up for the Baltimore Orioles two years ago, appearing in 33 games."
"So far this season in Buffalo, Jimenez is off to a strong start. Across 11 games and 35 at-bats, the Dominican product has nine hits (.257) and owns a .372 OBP, .371 SLG, and a .744 OPS with one double, one home run, and five RBIs."
The Toronto Blue Jays are looking to reinforce their roster after George Springer suffered a fractured left toe. Jimenez, who signed a minor league deal, has not played in the big leagues since 2024 due to injuries. He has shown strong performance in Buffalo this season, with a .257 batting average and a .744 OPS. Jimenez is not on the 40-man roster, but the Blue Jays have an open spot to add him. An update on Springer's condition is expected soon.
