The New York Mets have signed journeyman reliever Yefry Ramirez in an effort to add depth to the team’s bullpen.
According to Matt Kardos of MLB.com, the New York Mets have agreed to a minor-league deal with reliever Yefry Ramirez.
Ramirez is a well-traveled player. The 26-year-old reliever has played for four different organizations. He originally signed to play shortstop for the Arizona Diamondbacks as an international free agent in 2011, but he was quickly converted to a pitcher.
He excelled as a pitcher in short-season ball from 2012-2014 before struggling mightily in 2015 as a starter in rookie ball.
