Mets sign Chris Coste, add him to 40-man roster

According to a report out from The Forum of Fargo-Moorhead, the Mets have signed 36-year-old catcher Chris Coste.

Coste, who played in 88 games last year split between Philadelphia and Houston, has been added to the 40-man roster.  The Mets were the only team to offer him a guaranteed spot on the roster, according to The Forum.

Last season, Coste hit .224 / .301 / .317 in 205 at bats.  He hit two home runs and drove in 18.  In his career, Coste has hit .272 / .329 / .416 with 23 home runs and 108 RBI over 437 at bats.

Looks like the Mets will be stockpiling catchers this off-season.
