Mets' Jose Azocar: Outrighted to Syracuse

Azocar cleared waivers Saturday and was sent outright to Triple-A Syracuse.

The Mets removed Azocar from their 40-man roster ahead of Opening Day, and he'll officially remain within the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. The 28-year-old slashed .299/.327/.441 across 282 plate appearances in Triple-A last season and is likely to spend the majority of the 2025 campaign in the minors.
