Mets signed C-1B Chris Williams to a minor league contract.
Williams, 28, had spent his entire career in the Twins’ system and hit .222/.335/.468 with 48 homers over 885 plate appearances in Triple-A the last 2 1/2 seasons. He isn’t strong enough with the glove to be a No. 2 catcher in the majors or with the bat to earn more of a hybrid role, but he is a fine Triple-A player.
