Blue Jays Sign Catcher C.J. Stubbs to Minor-League Deal

The deal adds depth behind Alejandro Kirk and Tyler Heineman without a spring invitation.

Overview

  • MLB.com transaction logs show Stubbs agreed to a minor-league contract with Toronto, first reported by MLBTradeRumors.
  • Stubbs was not included on the Blue Jays’ list of non-roster spring training invitees released this week.
  • The 29-year-old’s MLB experience is one start for Washington on September 1, when he went 0-for-3 while catching a two-hit shutout of Miami.
  • A 2019 tenth-round pick by Houston, he was released in May 2024, signed with the Nationals, then was outrighted and elected minor-league free agency in late October.
  • With Kirk and Heineman established, Stubbs currently projects as organizational depth and a possible first call-up only if an injury arises.
