Designated hitter/outfielder Eloy Jimenez is signing a minor league deal with the Tampa Bay Rays, ESPN reported Monday.

Jimenez, 28, broke into the big leagues in 2019 with the Chicago White Sox and finished fourth in Rookie of the Year voting. In the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, Jimenez hit 14 home runs and drove in 41 runs while hitting .296.

But three of his next four seasons were disrupted by injury, and on July 30, the woeful White Sox traded Jimenez to the Baltimore Orioles. Between the two clubs, Jimenez hit .238 with six homers and 23 RBIs — all career lows — in 2024.

Jimemez is a career .269 hitter. He has 95 homers and 298 RBIs in 2,126 games.
