Jonny DeLuca - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

In line for short-side role DeLuca (hamstring/quad) is likely to see regular at-bats against left-handed pitching this season, per John Romano of the Tampa Bay Times.

Impact DeLuca stands out as one of Tampa Bay's few right-handed-hitting outfielders, considering the club's primary options consist of as lefty-hitters Chandler Simpson, Cedric Mullins and Jake Fraley. DeLuca ended the 2025 season on the 60-day injured list due to a right quadriceps strain, so he'll need to prove he's healthy during spring training before the Rays trust him to handle this role. The 27-year-old posted a promising .812 OPS with six stolen bases through 59 regular-season plate appearances amidst an injury-ruined 2025 campaign, and it doesn't sound like he'll open the new year in a spot for everyday action.

Shifts to 60-day IL The Rays transferred DeLuca (hamstring/quad) to the 60-day injured list Saturday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

Impact DeLuca has already been ruled out for the rest of the year after suffering a right quad strain at Triple-A Durham, so the Rays will move him to the 60-day IL to free up a 40-man roster spot for Garrett Acton.

Out for season with quad injury DeLuca suffered a right quad strain during a rehab game at Triple-A Durham and will miss the remainder of the season, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Injuries to DeLuca's shoulder and hamstring have limited him to just 20 games in the majors this season, during which he slashed .333/.356/.456 with four RBI, five runs scored and six stolen bases. Now dealing with a quad injury, the Rays will shut the 27-year-old down for the year and pivot to getting him ready for the start of the 2026 campaign.
