New York Mets Re-Sign Rene Rivera

Error 0:

The New York Mets catching depth behind Wilson Ramos was extremely thin heading into Spring Training, but the Mets have brought back veteran catcher Rene Rivera. He comes back to the Mets on a minor league deal for the second consecutive year, and he also receives an invite to Spring Training.

Syracuse had been no-hit through 7.1 innings when Rene Rivera singled to break up Nestor Cortes' bid. Rivera has also caught three runners stealing tonight. #Mets pic.twitter.com/lQ30vEEK42

Rivera will make $1 million if he lands on the major league roster along with another $300,000 in possible incentives.
