Rafael Lantigua: Breaking News

Nabs NRI deal with Blue Jays

The Blue Jays signed Lantigua to a minor-league contract Wednesday that includes an invitation to spring training. Lantigua spent the first seven seasons in pro ball with the Blue Jays before slashing .230/.356/.330 with seven homers, 17 steals and a 77:73 BB:K over 125 games at Triple-A Lehigh Valley in the Phillies organization in 2025. The 27-year-old is now back in his original organization and is likely ticketed for Triple-A Buffalo to begin the 2026 campaign.

Becomes free agent

Lantigua cleared waivers Thursday and elected free agency. Lantigua spent a brief period of time with the Phillies in 2025 but never appeared in an MLB game. He played in 125 games at Triple-A Lehigh Valley, however, where he slashed .231/.357/.331 with seven homers, 57 RBI, 82 runs scored and 17 stolen bases. The 27-year-old has yet to make his big-league debut and will likely have to settle for another minor-league deal in free agency.
