In 130 games this past season in Triple-A for the Phillies and Mets, Cairo slashed .230/.381/.300 with 25 stolen bases.
Cairo, the son of former MLB player Miguel Cairo, played shortstop, second base, third base, center field, and left field in 2026.
Paris, who turns 25 later in November, was claimed off waivers by the Mets from the Angels on Oct. 29 .
He was hitless over 15 at-bats across eight games during the 2026 season after slashing .190/.266/.381 over 44 games (126 ABs) in 2025.
The moves get the Mets' 40-man roster to 40 players.
