CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the Mets have reached a one-year deal with reliever Brandon Lyon.
Lyon registered a solid 3.10 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 63/20 K/BB ratio across 61 innings last season between the Astros and Blue Jays. He will function initially as a setup man for the Mets but could eventually see save opportunities if Frank Francisco's struggles continue. No word yet on the financial terms of the agreement.
