Dodgers claim versatile infielder from Mets in first offsesaon acquisition
The Dodgers have claimed 25-year-old infielder Christian Cairo off waivers from the Mets, making him their first offseason acquisition. The move adds organisational depth as the club looks to address a need for versatile bench players.
Cairo has not made his major league debut and spent most of last season in the Phillies’ Triple-A system, where he hit .227 with a .676 OPS in 128 games. Across seven minor league seasons he has hit 21 home runs; in 2026, he drew 92 walks and struck out 76 times. The Dodgers have two places left on their 40-man roster after the claim.
In short
- Dodgers claim infielder Christian Cairo from the Mets.
- The 25-year-old has yet to reach the major leagues.
- He adds depth as the Dodgers seek versatile bench options.
