The New York Mets signed RHP Kiko Calero to a minor league contract worht up to $1.5 million.

Calero, 35, will earn $850k if he makes the Mets with another $650k in incentives. There is no opt-out clause in the deal so the Mets can send him to the minors after Spring Training.

With free agent acquisition Kelvim Escobar already sidelined with an injured, the Mets needed to make this move to shore up their pitching staff, although they needed a lefty specialist more than Calero.
