The New York Mets have signed left-handed reliever A.J. Minter to a two-year deal worth $22 million, with an opt-out clause after the first year. Minter, 31, previously pitched for the Atlanta Braves and has a career 3.28 ERA. He had a significant hip surgery that sidelined him for the latter part of the last season, raising concerns about his performance. Minter joins a Mets bullpen that includes closer Edwin Díaz and others, as the team continues to bolster its roster. This marks the second signing in two days, following the acquisition of outfielder Jesse Winker.
