The New York Mets announced today that they have signed Infielders Jose Rojas and Jackson Cluff to minor league contracts with invitations to Spring Training.
Both players have minor league options (Rojas 1, Cluff 3) and will likely serve as experienced backups in case of injuries to big league players. They will also be subject to the Rule 5 draft in December.
Jose Rojas (turning 33 in February) saw time with the Angels in 2021 and 2022. He bats left and throws right seeing time mostly at 3B and 1B. He had a big year for the AAA Yankees last year with 32 and 105 RBIs in 124 games.
Jackson Cluff played 73 games at shortstop for the AAA Nationals last year but also played 2B, 3B, 1 game at 1B. He also is a lefty batter and righty thrower. He will turn 29 in December. In 103 games last year he had one of his better offensive seasons slashing .242/.349/.422 with 12 homers and 40 RBIs.
