Kyren Terrell Paris (born November 11, 2001) is an American professional baseball shortstop for the Los Angeles Angels of Major League Baseball (MLB). He made his MLB debut in 2023. Career
Paris attended Freedom High School in Oakley, California. He was drafted by the Los Angeles Angels in the second round, with the 55th overall selection, of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft. He signed with the Angels rather than play college baseball at the University of California, Berkeley. Paris made his professional debut with the Arizona League Angels with whom he appeared in three games. He did not play a minor league game in 2020 because the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He started 2021 with the Inland Empire 66ers before being promoted to the Tri-City Dust Devils. Over 47 games between the two teams, he slashed .267/.388/.459 with four home runs, 25 RBIs, and 22 stolen bases. He missed two months due to a fractured fibula. In 2023, Paris played in 113 games for the Double–A Rocket City Trash Pandas, hitting .255/.393/.417 with 14 home runs, 45 RBI, and 44 stolen bases. On September 1, 2023, Paris was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time. In 15 games for the Angels, he went 4–for–40 (.100) with 1 RBI and 3 stolen bases. On September 18, Paris was placed on the 60–day injured list with a ligament tear in his left thumb, ending his season. References
