The New York Mets have agreed to terms with LHP Tim Byrdak on a minor league contract and have invited him to Spring Training. Last season Byrdak went 2-2 with a 3.49 ERA, no saves and 29 strikeouts. Byrdak held lefthanded hitters to a .213 batting average.
He will compete for a spot in the bullpen as a lefty specialist. His main competition will be incumbents LHP Pat Misch and LHP Oliver Perez and fellow non-roster invitee LHP Taylor Tankersley.
