The Mets added some infield depth Monday when they claimed Robel Garcia off waivers from the Reds.
The 27-year-old was part of Cincinnati’s 60-man player pool this season. He appeared in 31 games for the Cubs in 2019, with a .775 OPS in 80 plate appearances and was claimed off waivers by the Reds in July.

To make room for Garcia on the 40-man roster, the Mets designated outfielder Ryan Cordell for assignment. Cordell, 28, went 1-for-8 for the Mets last season after signing as a free agent.
