Mets to sign RHP Neil Ramiez to major-league deal

The Mets will sign relief pitcher Neil Ramirez to a major-league deal, according to Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports.

In 10 1/3 innings with the Giants this season, Ramirez allowed 10 runs on 15 hits, earning an 8.71 ERA and 3.50 FIP, to go with 18 strikeouts and four walks, and has a BABIP against of .464.

Ramirez was designated for assignement by the Giants on April 30, and claimed by the Blue Jays a few days later. However the reliever lasted less than a week in Toronto before the Blue Jays designated him for assignment on May 9, where he rejected a demotion to Triple-A in favor of free agency.
