Rays, free-agent C Danny Jansen agree to 1-year deal: Sources

New York Times  

By Ken Rosenthal, Sahadev Sharma and Chris Strauss The Tampa Bay Rays have agreed to a one-year deal with free-agent catcher Danny Jansen, addressing an offseason need for the team ahead of the Winter Meetings next week, according to league sources. The 29-year-old Jansen spent the first six and a half seasons of his MLB career with the Toronto Blue Jays before a July trade to the Boston Red Sox, where he’d finish the 2024 season with a combined.205/.309/.349 stat line. That’s a unique thing that’s going to happen.’” Jansen, who now joins his third AL East team, won’t likely have anything quite so unique happen again in his career. “Although this free-agent class isn’t loaded at catcher, Jansen seems like a solid fit for them,” Bowden wrote.
