The Mets have signed pitcher Elmer Dessens to a minor league deal, according to the Denver Post (via MLBTR).Dessens is guaranteed $72,000, but could earn up to $600,000 with incentives.
He has pitched for eight different teams in his 12 year career, most recently with Atlanta. A career 4.56 ERA, and a season ERA that hasn't dipped below 4.50 since 2005, Dessens can work as either a reliever or a starter.
Enjoy Buffalo, Elmer.
