Omar Quintanilla - 2B - New York Mets
Jan. 3, 2013 - 4:25 PM ET

Mets signed INF Omar Quintanilla to a minor league contract with a spring training invite.

Quintanilla appeared in 29 games with the Mets last season prior to being traded to the Orioles in July. The 31-year-old owns a .220/.279/.302 batting line in the majors and will be an underdog to beat out Brandon Hicks for a backup infielder spot.
