Mets add two pitchers

The Mets have announced the signings of two pitchers that will be joining them in spring training. No, they're names are not Sheets or Perez.

Righty Kyle Snyder and lefty Jon Switzer were brought on board, likely to serve as bullpen fodder at triple-A. Both ex-Red Sox, they've seen significant time in the minor leagues last season, and will look for a hot spring to possibly land them on a major league roster.

If not, I'm sure we'll see one, or both, at some time due to injuries.

Anthony DiComo also lists all the non-roster invites for spring training.

They are:
Nelson Figueroa, Michael Antonini, Dillon Gee and Tobi Stoner, left-handed pitchers Adam Bostick, Casey Fossum and Tom Martin, catchers Rene Rivera, Omir Santos and Josh Thole, infielders Andy Green, Michel Abreu and Jose Coronado, and outfielder Fernando Martinez.
