Biography: Currently ranked the number one prospect in the Mets organization and the number one prospect in baseball by a number of scouting organizations, Francisco Alvarez is on the very cusp of his major league career. The Mets brought him up to play in a small handful of games at the end of the season [...]
At the beginning of 2022 Carlos Cortes ranked 9th and Jaylen Palmer ranked 15th amongst the Top 50 rankings. Fast forward to the end of the season and both players are now almost completely off the Top 50 entirely. Why had they been ranked so highly and what happened to make their value nearly fall [...]
I had been writing a post for about a week that focused on the failure of Darin Ruf and the need for the Mets to promote Mark Vientos to the majors. The Mets have finally seen fit to try something else with their DH as nothing has seemed to click all season. At this point, [...]
On 8/15 Buck Showalter was on the record as saying the time was not right to promote either Brett Baty or Francisco Alvarez. By 8/16 the writing was on the wall and the Mets had announced Baty would be promoted for the game on 8/17. Showalter isn’t a hypocrite, if Luis Guillorme was the only [...]
Some fans remain upset at the Mets lack of big-ticket moves this trade deadline. While some of us pined for Juan Soto or Willson Contreras, no major deal materialized. Looking at what the Padres gave up, I’m not sure we’d be better off if they had. In the end the Mets brought in a pair [...]
The Amateur draft has come and gone and there were a number of surprises but none were bigger than the Rangers’ selection of Kumar Rocker with the 3rd overall pick. The Mets wound up with a tremendous value pick in Kevin Parada and had a very good first day of drafting but should the Texas [...]
The Mets have seen the return of Max Scherzer. They will soon enjoy the return of Jacob deGrom. They’ve weathered the weak schedule of the Atlanta Braves and they have reached the cusp of the All Star break with Tomas Nido catching in many too many of their games. That being said, James McCann doesn’t [...]
Another month into the system and we’ve started to learn things about the prospects in the Mets system but the biggest and most important thing we’ve learned is that Francisco Alvarez is a great prospect. Since ascending into the #1 prospect slot he’s held there pretty firm through some surging months of Brett “The Met” [...]
The Amateur Draft is scheduled for later this month and the Mets will be picking four times in the first day and first 72 picks. The Mets are rightfully expected to draft a lot of pitching with the caveat that a player too good to pass up drops to them. Today’s analysis goes through some [...]
A lot can happen in a month and for a number of Mets prospects May was far kinder than the month of April. Of particular note is Mark Vientos who was utterly resurgent in the month of May after an absolutely dismal month of April. Likewise, Nick Plummer, Jose Peroza, Eric Orze and others bounced [...]
During a Mets360 game chatter a discussion began on the future position of Ronny Mauricio. The Mets #3 prospect (making a push to become the #2 prospect) is a natural shortstop who is destined to shift positions because of Francisco Lindor and the fact that he is 6’3” tall. Mauricio could be shifted to third [...]
