Welcome, Danny Jansen | Locked On Rays
Manage episode 454886721 series 2808800
The Locked on Rays crew breaks down the Tampa Bay Rays’ recent acquisition of catcher Danny Jansen, a move that signals a major effort to upgrade behind the plate.
We dive into the details of Jansen’s one-year, $8.5 million deal (with a mutual option for a second season) and discuss why catcher has been a critical position of need for the Rays. Despite their overall success in recent years, Tampa Bay has ranked near the bottom of the league in offensive and defensive production from catchers.
We analyze Jansen’s offensive strengths, including his power-hitting potential and disciplined approach at the plate, as well as his stellar blocking skills and ability to handle left-handed pitching.
But is his injury history and inconsistency at the plate cause for concern? We weigh the pros and cons of the move and how Jansen might pair with Ben Rortvedt or Logan Driscoll to solidify the Rays’ catching core.
