2025 Fantasy Outlook
DeLuca was part of the return in the Tyler Glasnow trade and could get a look as a regular for the Rays in 2025. He was mostly limited to short-side platoon work early in the year, but after the trade deadline, DeLuca was able to play regularly. He hit .299/.342/.430 with three home runs, seven steals and a 13.9 percent strikeout rate in 115 plate appearances as close to an everyday player for the Rays from mid-August on last year. He has 98th percentile sprint speed and is an elite defensive outfielder, and as things stand in late January, it looks like the Rays want to maximize his defense and speed in an everyday role. He'll hit near the bottom of the lineup, at least against righties, but DeLuca has the upside to provide a 15-homer/30-steal season with a decent batting average. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Rays in March of 2025.
Closing in on assignment
President of baseball operations Erik Neander said Thursday that DeLuca (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment this week, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis
DeLuca initially landed on the injured list in April with a strained right shoulder, though multiple setbacks have caused his absence to extend into the second half of the season. He'll give minor-league action another shot within the next several days and will likely require an extended ramp-up period before rejoining the active roster.

How does Jonny DeLuca compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Deluca got his first taste of the majors last season, slashing a respectable .262/.311/.429 with two homers, six RBI and a stolen base over a 24-game, 45-plate-appearance stint. The 25-year-old also showed well between Double-A and Triple-A with a .956 OPS, 17 homers, 53 RBI and 12 steals across 73 contests, and he's hit well in each of his minor-league stops, giving him little left to prove on the farm. It remains to be seen how well his minor-league power will translate in the big leagues, but Deluca is an exceptional athlete with a background in track (per Statcast, his sprint speed ranked in the 97th percentile last year) and an excellent glove. His ability to play all three outfield spots likely appealed to Tampa Bay when they acquired him from the Dodgers in the Tyler Glasnow trade. Deluca represents a premium short-side platoon option with the talent to expand his role if more playing time opens up.
