Jimenez agreed to a minor-league contract with the Blue Jays on Friday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports. Jimenez slashed .278/.335/.397 with three home runs in 167 plate appearances with Triple-A Durham in the Rays organization before being released in July. He will give the Blue Jays some experienced depth at Triple-A Buffalo in the corner outfield and at designated hitter.

The Rays released Jimenez on Friday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. Jimenez has been in the Rays' minor-league system for the entirety of the 2025 campaign, and he's slashed .278/.335/.397 in 167 plate appearances with Triple-A Durham. However, the veteran outfielder has been released and will hit the open market, where he should command some interest from teams willing to take a flier.

Jimenez was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Durham on Monday due to right Achilles tendinitis, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. Jimenez has slashed .270/.331/.369 with two home runs and a 28:13 K:BB over 37 games this season with Durham, splitting time between right field and designated hitter while mixing in some starts at first base and left field. It's not clear how long the 28-year-old might be sidelined.

The Rays reassigned Jimenez to Triple-A Durham on Sunday. The transaction was fully expected after manager Kevin Cash said Friday that the 28-year-old outfielder/designated hitter wouldn't be included on the Opening Day roster. Jimenez is slated to open the season at Triple-A Durham, but he'll have the ability to opt out of his contract on May 1 and June 1 if a promotion to the big leagues isn't imminent or if he wants to explore his options on the open market.
