The Mets are adding former Reds general manager Wayne Krivsky to their front office, major-league sources say.

Krivsky, a special assistant to Orioles president of baseball operations Andy MacPhail, is expected to fill a similar role with the Mets.

The Mets' front office had been depleted by the firing last July of Tony Bernazard, vice-president of player personnel, and by the move of Sandy Johnson, vice-president of scouting, into a less rigorous role.

Krivsky, 55, was the Twins' assistant GM when the Reds named him on GM on Feb. 8, 2006. After his dismissal on April 23, 2008, he became a major-league scout with the Mets that June.

The Mets asked him to remain with the team at that end of the season, but Krivsky accepted a job with the Orioles instead.
