Michael Timothy Tonis is a former Major League Baseball catcher. He bats and throws right-handed. Tonis attended Elk Grove High School and was drafted in the 52nd round of the 1997 Major League Baseball draft by the New York Mets, but did not sign, instead choosing to attend the University of California. The Royals drafted him again in the 2nd round of the 2000 draft and he did sign. Tonis' best season was 2001, when he batted .264 with 12 home runs and 61 RBI with the Single-A Wilmington Blue Rocks and Double-A Wichita Wranglers. Prior to the 2002 season Tonis suffered multiple injuries, which sidelined him for most of the season.

He was called up from Double-A Wichita in 2004 to make his major league debut on June 20. He played his last game on June 24 before being sent back down to Double-A. He has not played for an MLB affiliated team since. Tonis joined the Greek baseball team for the 2004 Athens Olympics.
