Mets Designate Alexander Canario For Assignment
2 days agoThe New York Mets have designated outfielder Alexander Canario for assignment. The Mets acquired Canario from the Chicago Cubs earlier this winter. The 24-year-old did not have any options and had to break camp with the major league roster or would have to pass through waivers. Canario was unable to make the MLB roster during camp. In the Grapefruit League, Canario performed well, posting a .306/.419/.611 slash line with two doubles and three home runs. Canario has only appeared in 21 MLB contests over the past two seasons. During his limited taste of MLB action, the 24-year-old has posted a strong .286/.353/.524 slash line with two doubles and two round-trippers. He generated an elite 14.3 barrel rate. Given his success in camp, he will likely draw interest on waivers.
