Overview

  • The former White Sox slugger hit 31 home runs as a rookie in 2019 and earned a 2020 Silver Slugger before a series of injuries limited him from 2021–24.
  • He spent this season with the Rays’ Triple-A Durham Bulls before being released around the All-Star break.
  • He is expected to join the Blue Jays’ Triple-A Buffalo Bisons in the coming days, according to local reporting.
  • Across 40 Triple-A games this year, he posted a .278/.335/.397 line with three home runs.
  • Because he signed before Sept. 1, he would be eligible for Toronto’s postseason roster if the club adds him to the majors.
