The 24-year-old Cheng appeared in three games with the Pirates last season, going 0-for-7 with three strikeouts,
He was selected off waivers by Tampa Bay earlier this month before the Mets snagged him Friday.
The native of Taiwan has primarily been a shortstop in the minors and also spent time at second and third base.
He signed with the Pirates as an international free agent in 2019 and was designated for assignment by the team in December and figures to provide minor league depth at Triple-A Syracuse, since the Mets appear set in the infield after they agreed to a three-year, $126 million deal with Bichette, who will shift over from shortstop to third.
Bichette will join Francisco Lindor at short and newly-acquired Marcus Semien at second, while Brett Baty may have a utility role and another recent acquisition, Jorge Polanco could see time at first with Mark Vientos.
