The Mets signed Paris to a one-year contract Monday and designated him for assignment.
Paris was claimed off waivers by the Mets last week and will now be available on waivers again. The 24-year-old slashed .307/.427/.554 last season while at Triple-A Salt Lake in the Angels organization, and he's managed just a .510 OPS in 88 contests at the major-league level.

Rotowire
The Mets claimed Ohl (elbow) off waivers from the Rockies on Monday.
Ohl missed the 2026 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery, but he has a chance to be ready in time for the start of next season if the Mets plan to use him as a reliever. The right-hander posted a 5.10 ERA and 27:7 K:BB over 30 innings with the Twins in 2025 before going to Colorado in a trade last winter.

Rotowire
The Mets re-signed Cairo to a one-year contract Monday.
A late-season waiver claim of the Mets, Cairo finishing with a .230/.381/.300 batting line, four homers, 25 steals and a 92:76 BB:K over 130 games at the Triple-A level between the Phillies and Mets organizations. The 25-year-old has not yet appeared in a game at the major-league level.
Paris was claimed off waivers by the Mets on Thursday.
Paris was cut loose by the Angels, and he has now found a new home with New York. The 24-year-old spent the majority of the 2026 campaign with Triple-A Salt Lake, batting .307 with 13 home runs, 50 RBI, 42 runs scored and 16 stolen bases over 231 at-bats over 62 contests with the team. Paris went 0-for-15 with eight strikeouts and three walks over 18 plate appearances over eight regular-season contests with the Angels in 2026, and he'll look to earn a more prolonged major-league opportunity with the Mets in 2027.

Mets' Bo Bichette: Exercises player option
Rotowire
Bichette exercised his $42 million player option for the 2027 season Thursday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Bichette's first year with the Mets didn't quite play out the way many had expected before the season began, as he posted just a .702 OPS across 696 plate appearances while adding 18 homers, 78 RBI and 76 runs for a team that finished last in the NL East. It was unlikely that he'd attract a more lucrative deal in free agency coming off one of the worst seasons of his career, so he'll opt in for another season as an everyday starter in Queens.
