"The Mets added a veteran backup shortstop Friday, agreeing to a one-year deal with former Cub, Pirate and Mariner Ronny Cedeno, according to two baseball sources with knowledge of the contract.

Cedeno is slated to earn about $1.2 million plus incentives next season as insurance for Jose Reyes' replacement, Ruben Tejada. Cedeno's deal is pending a physical exam, both sources said."
