The New York Mets announced Monday they signed veteran outfielder Melky Cabrera, who will be part of the team's player pool for spring training 2.0 beginning next month.
Teams are allowed up to 60 players in their pool before cutting down to 30 players on the Opening Day roster. The rest of the players will remain at an Alternate Training Site.
Cabrera spent last season with the Pittsburgh Pirates, hitting .280 with seven home runs in 133 games.
