Timeline

1975

Rodrigo Richard Barajas (born September 5, 1975) is an American former professional baseball catcher and is currently serving as the Field Coordinator for the Miami Marlins of Major League Baseball (MLB).

1996

Barajas was originally signed by the Arizona Diamondbacks as an amateur free agent on December 23, 1996.

He was immediately sent to the minor leagues.

He played for the Lethbridge Black Diamonds of the Pioneer League (Rk), the lowest level of the minors as a rookie, but excelled, hitting .337 in 51 games.

He played his way to the top of the minor leagues in the Diamondbacks' system.

1999

Barajas made his Major League debut for the Diamondbacks on September 25, 1999, against the San Francisco Giants.

He was hitless in three at-bats in that game.

He hit his first career home run in the last game of the season on October 3, 1999, against the San Diego Padres, a line-drive to left-center field off of Heath Murray.

He played in a total of 10 games with the Diamondbacks in 1999 and 2000.

He homered twice and did not commit a single error while playing catcher.

2001

With the Diamondbacks, he won the 2001 World Series over the then reigning, three-time world champion New York Yankees.

Barajas also played for the Mexico national baseball team.

Barajas struggled at the plate in 2001, hitting just .160 in 51 games, though he only committed one error while serving as a backup for Damian Miller.

He was on the Diamondbacks' World Series roster.

In Game 5 of the World Series, he homered off Mike Mussina of the New York Yankees.

2002

Barajas continued to serve as a backup for Miller in 2002.

In 70 games, he hit .234 with three home runs and 23 RBI.

Despite the poor offensive numbers in 2002, Barajas did not commit a single error behind the plate.

2003

In 2003, he pulled off similar numbers in 80 games, batting just .218 with three home runs and 28 RBI.

He became a free agent after the season.

2004

Before 2004, Barajas had never played more than 80 games, hit more than three home runs, or batted higher than .234 in a full season.

In January 2004, the Texas Rangers signed Barajas to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training.

He won the backup catcher's job during the spring and made the team's Opening Day roster.

After starting catcher Gerald Laird was sidelined with a sprained thumb, Barajas took over the starting job with Laird and Danny Ardoin serving as his backups.

At the end of the season, he established career highs in games played (108), home runs (15), RBIs (58), and batting average (.249).

2005

In 2005, he hit .254 with a career-high 21 home runs and 60 RBI in 120 games, serving as the starter once again.

2006

In 2006, he split time with Laird at catcher, and finished the season batting .256 with 11 home runs and 41 RBI in 97 games.

In November 2006, Barajas was originally going to sign a two-year, $5.25 million deal with the Toronto Blue Jays, but he backed out of the deal at the last minute, claiming he never approved the contract, and fired both of his agents.

On December 18, 2006, it was announced that he had reached an agreement with the Philadelphia Phillies for a one-year, $2.5 million deal, worth less than half of the Blue Jays' offer a month earlier.

Barajas claimed he was happy with the new deal and had no regrets.

He shared time behind the plate with Carlos Ruiz, and batted .230 with four home runs and 10 RBI in 48 games with the Phillies.

2007

Barajas also played some first base when needed, compiling ten career games there as a defensive replacement, through the 2007 season.

On October 11, 2007, the Phillies declined his option, making him a free agent.

2008

On January 24, 2008, Barajas signed a one-year, $1.2 million deal with the Toronto Blue Jays, the team he backed out of a contract with the previous off-season, this time as the backup to incumbent catcher Gregg Zaun.

Zaun had signed a two-year deal with the team only after negotiations with Barajas fell apart.

Blue Jays general manager J. P. Ricciardi said he had no hard feelings towards Barajas.

He finished the 2008 season batting .249 with 11 home runs, 49 RBIs, a .294 on-base percentage, and a .410 slugging percentage over 104 games.

2009

Zaun was supposed to be the starting catcher, but due to his poor offensive numbers and overall difficulties, manager Cito Gaston made Barajas the starter after he took over for John Gibbons, and he continued in that role in 2009.

2019

Barajas served as the interim manager for the San Diego Padres after Andy Green's firing on September 21, 2019.

As a player in Major League Baseball (MLB), he played for the Arizona Diamondbacks, Texas Rangers, Philadelphia Phillies, Toronto Blue Jays, New York Mets, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Pittsburgh Pirates.
