• Mets' Jared Young: Nets MLB deal from Mets

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  The Mets signed Young to a one-year contract Monday. Young split the 2024 season between Triple-A Memphis in the Cardinals organization and with the Doosan Bears of the Korea Baseball Organization, posting a .917 OPS at the former and a 1.080 OPS at the latter. The Mets have very little in the way of depth at first base right now, but Young is nonetheless likely to begin 2025 at Triple-A Syracuse.

  The Cardinals transferred Young to the Doosan Bears of the Korea Baseball Organization in exchange for cash considerations.

  The Cardinals outrighted Young to Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday after he cleared waivers, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

• Cardinals' Jared Young: Optioned to Memphis

  The Cardinals optioned Young to Triple-A Memphis on Saturday. Young has slashed .210/.290/.435 across 69 plate appearances in his MLB career, but a .353 OPS during spring training will send him back to the minors for the start of the season. Young found plenty of success with the Cubs' Triple-A affiliate last season, and a return to form at the plate could help him reach the majors again during his first season with the Cardinals.

• Cardinals' Jared Young: Not doing enough to win roster spot

  Young has gone 2-for-31 (.065) over 15 Grapefruit League games. Young provides organizational depth at the corner infield and corner outfield spots, but he's yet to get in a groove during spring training. The 28-year-old was claimed off waivers from the Cubs in November. Young's poor hitting in spring will likely mean he begins the year in the minors.
