• Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Getting first day off

  Rotowire Apr 8, 2025

  Gimenez is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox. After starting the first 11 games of the season and clubbing three early homers, Gimenez will hit the bench Tuesday while mired in a 1-for-13 slump across the past four contests. Davis Schneider will take over at second base and bat sixth in his place.

• Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Busy on basepaths Monday

  Rotowire Apr 8, 2025

  Gimenez went 0-for-2 with two walks, an RBI, two runs scored and two stolen bases in Monday's win over the Red Sox. The 26-year-old infielder has been flashing surprising power in the early going this season, but speed remains an important part of his skill set. Gimenez stole exactly 30 bags in each of the prior two seasons with the Guardians, and he's 3-for-4 on steal attempts through 11 games to begin his stint as a Blue Jay.

• Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Power surge continues Monday

  Rotowire Mar 31, 2025

  Gimenez went 2-for-2 with a solo home run, a stolen base, a walk and an additional two runs scored in Monday's 5-2 win over Washington. Gimenez got the Blue Jays into the scoring column with a solo shot in the second inning Monday. The 26-year-old former All-Star has put together an impressive power display during the very early stages of the campaign, as he's now slashing .333/.455/.944 with three long balls, two doubles, five RBI, and seven runs scored through five games. Although the slugging percentage is unsustainable, the speedy Gimenez is certainly thriving as Toronto's cleanup batter so far.

• Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Goes deep in loss to Orioles

  Rotowire Mar 30, 2025

  Gimenez went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer, walk and strikeout in a 9-5 loss to Baltimore. After hitting just nine home runs in 2024 over 583 at-bats, the 26-year-old is already up to two homers through three games this year. Gimenez was acquired by Toronto from Cleveland in December and has batted cleanup in the first three games of 2025, so it appears he'll have more RBI potential with his new club.

• Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Shoulders offense Thursday

  Rotowire Mar 27, 2025

  Gimenez went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer and a walk in Thursday's 12-2 loss to the Orioles. Gimenez supplied all of the offense for the Blue Jays on Opening Day, taking Orioles right-hander Zach Eflin yard for a two-run shot in the fourth inning. It was interesting to see the speedy Gimenez, who went 13-for-46 (.283) with two homers, 11 RBI and two stolen bases during spring training, bat cleanup Thursday, but he should see plenty of RBI chances if he sticks in the No. 4 spot in Toronto's lineup going forward.

• Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Batting cleanup Thursday

  Rotowire Mar 27, 2025

  Gimenez is starting at second base and batting cleanup in Thursday's opener against the Orioles. He's an atypical cleanup hitter, but Gimenez's fantasy stock receives a boost while he's hitting behind Bo Bichette, Vladimir Guerrero and Anthony Santander. The former Guardian slashed .252/.298/.340 with nine homers during the regular season for Cleveland in 2024.

• Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Shows off wheels Friday

  Rotowire Mar 15, 2025

  Gimenez went 1-for-2 with a walk, a triple, a run scored and two RBI in Friday's Grapefruit league game against the Astros. The second baseman dropped a deep fly to right-center field over the head of minor leaguer Quincy Hamilton in the first inning and raced around the bases for his second triple of the spring. Gimenez has gone 8-for-30 (.267) in Grapefruit League action with a 4:6 BB:K, and he's gotten a number of looks in the leadoff spot. While he isn't likely to begin the season at the top of the order, Gimenez's fantasy value would get a boost if he worked his way into that assignment later in the year.

• Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Bound for Toronto

  Rotowire Dec 10, 2024

  The Guardians traded Gimenez to the Blue Jays on Tuesday alongside Nick Sandlin in exchange for Spencer Horwitz and Nick Mitchell, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. Gimenez had a down year offensively in 2024, slashing just .252/.298/.340 with 63 RBI in 152 games. However, the 26-year-old infielder is coming off his second consecutive 30-steal campaign and has developed into one of the game's best defenders. His glove will almost certainly keep him in the lineup everyday for Toronto, and he still has potential to bounce back at the plate after posting an .837 OPS just two seasons ago.

He's slugging .412 this month compared to .342 for the year, though he's routinely had fairly modest power numbers.

  Rotowire Sep 11, 2024

  Gimenez went 2-for-5 with a stolen base and one RBI in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the White Sox. Gimenez saw a seven-game hitting streak end Monday, but he was right back at it with his second multi-hit effort of the month. The second baseman's improved batting in the second half of the season has helped him return to the No. 2 spot in the order versus right-handers after spending much of the campaign in the bottom half of the lineup. Gimenez is now at a .254/.304/.342 slash line with 28 steals, eight home runs, 58 RBI and 60 runs scored over 137 contests.

• Guardians' Andres Gimenez: Picks up steal Friday

  Rotowire Aug 24, 2024

  Gimenez went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Rangers. Gimenez has seven steals across his last 14 games, but he's batting a poor .208 (10-for-48) in that span. It's encouraging to see him take chances on the basepaths even when his opportunities are limited, but he has just one extra-base hit in the aforementioned sample. The second baseman is up to 23 steals on 26 attempts this year while adding a .251/.303/.328 slash line, five home runs, 50 RBI and 51 runs scored through 120 contests.
