David Stearns is staying busy replenishing the Mets’ roster.
After coming to an agreement with right-hander Luis Severino on Wednesday night, the Mets added to their lineup depth by landing infielder Joey Wendle on a one-year, $2 million deal plus performance bonuses, The Post’s Joel Sherman reported.
The versatile, left-handed-hitting Wendle was an All-Star with the Rays in 2021 but is coming off a rough season with the Marlins.
The 33-year-old hit .212 with a .554 OPS in 112 games this year.
After the Mets non-tendered Luis Guillorme, who was projected to make $1.7 million in arbitration (per MLB Trade Rumors), Wendle could essentially fill his role on the roster.
He spent 2023 as a full-time shortstop but has played 200-plus games at both second base and third base.
