Overview
- Multiple outlets report Jansen agreed to a two-year, $14.5 million contract, though the club has not announced the move.
- Reports also indicate one-year agreements with relievers Alexis Díaz and Tyler Alexander, attributed to Mark Feinsand and Jeff Passan.
- Jansen, 30, would share catching duties with Kyle Higashioka as the team shores up its depth behind the plate.
- He hit .215/.321/.399 with 14 home runs in 2025 and is elite at blocking pitches, with 14 blocks above average last season and 72 since 2019, though his framing grades are weaker.
- He has not topped 100 games since 2019 but appeared in 98 contests last season after avoiding the injured list, and the club has been linked to pursuing a younger catcher via trade.
