The April He Had Deserves to Be Remembered.
Kyren Paris posted a 1.309 OPS across 46 plate appearances in April 2025. That number is not a misprint — it is a hot streak on a poor team that nobody talked about because the Angels were losing regardless. The rest of the season was ordinary, but elite April production from a 22-year-old utility piece is information worth keeping.
Paris is a classic fourth outfielder profile: athletic, versatile enough to cover multiple positions, and capable of short stretches of genuinely useful offense. At $720K he costs almost nothing, and his ability to play center, left, and right field gives Suzuki genuine flexibility in late-game situations.
The career numbers are not going to scare anyone, but context matters: Paris has barely scratched 125 MLB games total. His age-22 April was a legitimate flash of what he can be. At 23, playing for a team that needs every useful body it can find, he has real value as long as the front office does not overrate him and the manager does not overplay him.
