The New York Mets have reached an agreement with free-agent lefty reliever A.J. Minter, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Minter is slated to make $22 million over a two-year term. He will have the ability to opt out and return to the free-agent market after the first season if he so desires.

The 31-year-old Minter has spent his entire eight-year major league career with the NL East rival Atlanta Braves.

The addition occurred a day after the Mets, moving forward with their offseason plan with the belief Pete Alonso will sign elsewhere, reunited with Jesse Winker on a one-year contract worth $7.5 million. Tanner Scott, who is regarded as the top reliever on the free-agent market, met with club officials earlier this month.
