Jimenez has a long track record of representing Panama at international youth tournaments, from the 12U World Cup in 2013 in Taiwan to the COPABE 14U Championship in 2015 in Venezuela to the COPABE 16U Championship in 2016 in Panama. He was the top prospect in Panama in 2017, when he signed with the Blue Jays for $825,000. Jimenez stands out more for his baseball savvy and instincts than his raw tools or explosiveness. He's a smart all-around player with a good hitting approach, making frequent contact with a short swing. He stays through the middle of the field well, hitting a lot of line drives with gap power. Jimenez is a fringe-average runner and doesn't have the quick first step a lot of scouts want to see in a shortstop, but he is an instinctive defender with a good internal clock, smooth hands, actions and good body control at the position.
