Mets' Taylor Kohlwey: Receives NRI from Mets
Kohlwey signed a minor-league contract with the Mets on Friday that includes an invitation to spring training.
Kohlwey got a cup of coffee with the Padres in 2023, going 2-for-13 at the plate, but was non-tendered last month. He'll compete for a reserve outfielder job with the Mets but is likely to head to Triple-A Syracuse at the beginning of the season.

Padres' Taylor Kohlwey: Optioned to Triple-A
The Padres optioned Kohlwey to Triple-A El Paso on Saturday.
Kohlwey was promoted from Triple-A on July 18 and has since gone 2-for-13 with five strikeouts over five games. He's had better luck in Triple-A, so there's a chance he returns to San Diego as a depth piece if he's able to bounce back in El Paso. Brett Sullivan was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Padres' Taylor Kohlwey: Beginning year in Triple-A
Kohlwey has been informed that he'll begin the year with Triple-A El Paso, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Kohlwey was considered a potential bench option for the Padres to begin the year, but the 28-year-old will instead head to the Pacific Coast League and likely receive regular plate appearances. With Kohlwey in Triple-A, it appears that David Dahl has won a spot on the San Diego bench to open 2023.
