According to multiple reports, Wilson's two-year deal is worth $10 million.

Wilson also has pitched for the Pirates, Yankees and Tigers. For his career, he's 26-19 with a 3.33 ERA and 14 saves.

Left-handed relief has been a glaring hole in the Mets' bullpen this offseason. The only lefty reliever on their 40-man roster before adding Wilson was rookie Daniel Zamora.
