The New York Mets have designated infielder Luis De Los Santos for assignment, allowing for the signing of Nick Madrigal to a one-year contract. Previously claimed off waivers from the Blue Jays, De Los Santos, 26, played in 13 games with the Mets last season with a batting average of .172. Despite a strong minor league showing with a .268 average in Triple-A, he struggles with contact. He has experience across all infield positions and may be placed on waivers soon for potential reassignment.
The Mets designated Luis De Los Santos for assignment to create a roster spot for Nick Madrigal, who signed a one-year contract.
De Los Santos, primarily a shortstop, has experience in all four infield positions and a decent walk rate but below-average contact rates.
