The New York Mets bolstered their bullpen on Thursday, finalizing a one-year contract with right-hander Ryne Stanek. Stanek was acquired in a trade with Seattle at the deadline last year for minor league outfielder Rhylan Thomas.

Right-hander Ryne Stanek and the New York Mets are in agreement on a one-year contract, according to a source, further bolstering a bullpen with a hard-throwing reliever with significant postseason experience.

Ryne Stanek is set to re-sign after re-emerging as a postseason weapon last fall. It’s a one-year, $4.5 million contract with the potential for another $500,000 in incentives, according to MLB.com. The Mets originally acquired Stanek, 33, in a pre-deadline trade with the Seattle Mariners last July.
