Former Toronto Blue Jays catcher Danny Jansen has officially been traded as the Tampa Bay Rays are sending him to the Milwaukee Brewers.

Jansen signed a one year deal with the Rays hoping to land a long term extension with them this year but due to an average season, he has been surrounded by trade rumors lately.

@JeffPassan
Jansen's season in Tampa Bay did not go as expected as he continued to struggle at the plate similar to how he did during the 2024 season split between the Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox.
So far this season, Jansen has 11 homeruns and 29 RBIs with a .204 batting average and .314 on base percentage in 73 games with the Rays.
The Brewers likely acquired Jansen to add catching depth as his true strength is his defensive ability and not his hitting.
It will be interesting to see how he does in Milwaukee.
