Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Cionel Pérez, 30-year-old left-handed reliever, signed a minor league contract with the New York Mets after being designated for assignment by the Washington Nationals. Pérez had an impressive spring training (7 scoreless innings, 0.50 WHIP, 5 K) and earned a spot on the Nationals' Opening Day roster, but struggled significantly in the regular season with a 6.19 ERA, 1.69 WHIP, 9 strikeouts and 11 walks in 16 innings over five weeks. This marks the second consecutive poor season after a solid 2022-24 run with the Baltimore Orioles (3.12 ERA, 57 holds, 6 saves). Pérez will report to Triple-A Syracuse and must improve his control to earn a call-up to the Mets' bullpen.
