I hope Phillip Evans can stick at SS. We’ll have a solid middle infield both offensively and defensively.

Off topic…actually, an interesting topic…Ryan Braun WINS his appeal of the 50 game suspension. Wow!

That’s a great question Sach. It’s hard to just pick two though. I like RHP Domingo Tapia a real lot, and think he is about to explode onto the scene next year. His fastball is hitting 100 mph these days. Also I liked LHP Jack Leathersich, even before Danny Muno referred to his stuff as “electric”. RHP’s Tyler Pill and Logan Verrett should emerge as two quality arms next year.
As for bats, SS Juan Carlos Gamboa is a very exciting talent and he will be very well known to Mets fans by this time next year. Ditto OF-3B Dustin Lawley, and SS Phillip Evans. One guy is my true ‘darkhorse’ candidate though, and that is INF-OF Joe Bonfe, who started 2011 as an extra cog on the Savannah bench, and finished the year as the team’s best hitter.

Petey. I’m curious. Your choice of 2 lower profile prospects in the Met farm system that you feel can make an impression or nice forward move next season? You can answer in the comments section of this post.

Thanks Petey! This guy is already one of my favorite players in the Met farm system and I’m going to keep close tabs on this guy moving forward. I just have a gut feeling that Danny is going to develop into a Dustin Pedroia warrior type without as much HR power at 2B for the Mets in the future.

“This is Spar…cough, cough Brooklyn!!!”
Looking forward to the sequel “300 Battle of Artemisia”.

Never heard of the scout he mentioned Doug Thurman.

Good read Petey your building quite a library of player Q&A’s.

Thanks a lot Des, that’s very nice of you to say. Danny Muno is truly a great story, and an interesting fellow to keep tabs on. I have a feeling we’ll be hearing a lot more from him in the future.

Thanks to Petey for another gem of a writeup.

Danny Muno is a wonderful story. Both parents played on national championship teams. Danny is impressed with Jack Leathersich. He says he has electric stuff on the mound.
