The Mets have agreed to a two-year deal with catcher Wilson Ramos, per Daniel Alvarez Montes. Ken Rosenthal confirmed the deal and specified that it is for two years. Ken Davidoff adds that the deal is for $19 million and includes the possibility that Ramos could earn more.
The Mets had been actively seeking an upgrade behind the plate, and Ramos certainly is one. While there had been plenty of rumors that the team was leaning toward a defense-first catcher, Ramos will give them a significant boost as a hitter.
