Riddle has mostly played at Triple-A Louisville this season, but also made two appearances with Cincinnati at the big league level.
A veteran of six MLB seasons, Riddle received most of his playing time as a semi-regular with the Marlins from 2017-19, with 223 of his 252 career games coming during those three seasons. After playing 23 games with the Pirates during the shortened 2020 season, Riddle got into just four games with the Twins in 2021.
Riddle will give the Mets more depth at the Triple-A level, the team can look his way if the injury bug continues to plague them. He’s most played at shortstop, however, has expanded his skill set in recent years as a utility infielder.
