Overview
- The Mets announced Friday they signed Jackson Cluff to a minor-league contract that includes an invitation to spring training.
- Cluff was a 2019 sixth-round pick of the Nationals and at one point ranked among their top 20 prospects.
- In 2025 at Triple-A, he posted a 106 wRC%2B with 12 home runs, 23 steals, a 13.3% walk rate and a 28.7% strikeout rate.
- He has played extensively at second base and shortstop and has experience across the infield, even appearing at multiple other positions.
- Reporters characterize him as depth who is unlikely to make the Opening Day roster, with a strong camp or production in Syracuse potentially putting him in line for a call-up if needs arise.
