Mets acquire Jose Siri in trade with Rays

The Tampa Bay Rays sent centerfielder Jose Siri to the New York Mets in exchange for reliever Eric Orze, according to Anthony DiComo.

The right-handed Siri was the primary center fielder in Tampa Bay last season, slashing .187/.255/.366 with 18 home runs and 14 stolen bases in 130 games for the Rays.

The 29-year-old made his Major League debut for the Houston Astros on Sept. 3, 2021, against the San Diego Padres. In August 2022, he was part of the three-team deal between the Astros, Rays and Baltimore Orioles that sent Trey Mancini to Houston.
