Sisco joins the Cardinals organization after playing 65 games with the Ducks this season. He ranked second on the team in home runs (16), third in slugging percentage (.563), OPS (.955) and doubles (15), and fourth in walks (31). The backstop is also the Atlantic League leader in hit by pitch (18). The 29-year-old has compiled a .261 batting average and a .392 on-base percentage along with 45 RBIs, 42 runs and 58 hits. In 2023, Sisco hit .305 with 11 homers, 33 RBIs, 24 runs and a 1.184 OPS in 31 games with Long Island.

The California native has spent parts of five seasons in the Major Leagues with the Baltimore Orioles (2017-21) and New York Mets (2021). In 196 MLB games, he has totaled 16 home runs, 54 RBIs, 61 runs, 102 hits, 24 doubles, 62 walks and a .317 on-base percentage. The Florida resident was originally selected by the Orioles in the second round of the 2013 amateur draft and was once a Top-100 prospect.
