Left-hander A.J. Minter and the New York Mets have finalized a $22 million, two-year contract. Minter can opt out after the 2025 World Series and become a free agent again.

The Mets announced that they have signed free agent reliever A.J. Minter. It’s reportedly a two-year, $22MM contract. The Bledsoe Agency client can opt out after the first season. The Mets had an opening on the 40-man roster.

The addition occurred a day after the Mets, moving forward with their offseason plan with the belief Pete Alonso will sign elsewhere, reunited with Jesse Winker on a one-year contract worth $7.5 million. Tanner Scott, who is regarded as the top reliever on the free-agent market, met with club officials earlier this month.
