Devin Mesoraco Anthony J. CausiPORT ST. LUCIE — Devin Mesoraco could be headed elsewhere if the Mets don’t plan to place him on the 25-man roster.
The veteran catcher, who returned to the team in the offseason on a minor league deal, has an “upward mobility” clause in his contract that can be exercised Wednesday. If the Mets don’t tell Mesoraco he is on the team by then, he has a 72-hour window to find a major league job.
Wilson Ramos is the Mets’ primary catcher, and general manager Brodie Van Wagenen has indicated Travis d’Arnaud will be on the team if he’s healthy. But d’Arnaud, who is returning from Tommy John surgery, still has hurdles to clear.
