New York Mets: Center Fielder Kevin Pillar Signed To One-Year Deal

The New York Mets continue to add outfield depth to their roster by signing Kevin Pillar to a one-year deal. After starting the offseason with limited outfield options, the Mets now have plenty of bench options to choose from.

One other note on Pillar: if Dominic Smith is indeed going to be the Mets' starting left fielder, which appears to be the case, you can bet Luis Rojas will aggressively sub him out late in games with a lead. Pillar (and Almora, if the Mets carry both) offers that flexibility.
