Jansen went 3-for-3 with an RBI, a run scored and a walk Saturday against the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Jansen recorded his first three-hit game and only third multi-hit performance in his last 17 starts. However, he has been productive in other ways, and he now has 14 RBI and 12 runs scored in that same span. Jansen remains the primary catcher for the Rays and has started five of the team's last six games.

Jansen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
The right-handed-hitting Jansen continues to serve as the Rays' primary catcher against left-handed pitching, but he and the lefty-hitting Matt Thaiss have essentially been working in a timeshare against righties since the latter backstop was acquired from the White Sox on May 27. Thaiss will get the nod behind the dish Wednesday after Jansen had started each of the last three contests, two of which came while the Athletics sent lefties to the hill.

Jansen went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk Tuesday against the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Jansen smacked a solo home run in the seventh inning, his ninth long ball of the season. He's homered five times across his last 18 starts, also tallying 13 RBI and 11 runs scored in that span. Jansen remains the primary catcher for the Rays, though Matt Thaiss still gets plenty of starts.
