Jeter D. Downs (born July 27, 1998) is a Colombian-American professional baseball shortstop for the Los Angeles Dodgers organization. Downs is originally from San Andrés, Colombia. He was named after Derek Jeter. His father, Jerry Sr., played baseball professionally in Colombia. His family moved to the Little Havana neighborhood in Miami, Florida, when he was five years old. Downs attended Monsignor Edward Pace High School in Miami Gardens, Florida, and played for the school's baseball team as a shortstop. He committed to attend the University of Miami on a college baseball scholarship. The Cincinnati Reds selected Downs with the 32nd overall selection of the 2017 MLB draft. He signed with the Reds for a $1.825 million signing bonus. After signing, he was assigned to the Billings Mustangs of the Rookie-level Pioneer League, where he spent all of his first professional season, posting a .267 batting average with six home runs and 29 RBIs in 50 games. Downs spent the 2018 season with the Dayton Dragons of the Class A Midwest League where he hit .257 with 13 home runs, 47 RBIs, and 37 stolen bases in 120 games. On December 21, 2018, the Reds traded Downs to the Los Angeles Dodgers, along with Homer Bailey and Josiah Gray in exchange for Matt Kemp, Yasiel Puig, Alex Wood, Kyle Farmer and cash considerations. Downs' brother, Jerry Jr., is also a professional baseball player.
