In need of organizational depth, the Mets announced five minor-league signings on Friday, headlined by re-signing veteran reliever Tommy Hunter with an invite to major league spring training.

The club also signed right-hander Jimmy Yacabonis, outfielder Abraham Almonte and infielder Jose Peraza to minor league contracts with invitations to major league camp. Additionally, they re-signed reliever Sean Reid-Foley, who underwent Tommy John surgery last May, to a minor league deal after non-tendering him last month.

Hunter is the most notable signing after the 36-year-old proved to be a solid option out of the Mets’ bullpen last season, posting a 2.42 ERA across 22 ¹/₃ innings. The right-hander, who underwent back surgery in 2021, will have a chance to win a bullpen job in spring training with the Mets still needing to fill out their relief corps.
