‘Get Metsmerized’ Podcast Episode 21: Prospect Rankings Feat. Jacob Resnick

Mets fans, episode 21 is here! SNY’s Jacob Resnick joins the show once again to discuss the latest from the MLB lockout as well as Jacob’s newest top 75 Prospect rankings. When asked about why he has Mark Vientos ranked just about Ronny Mauricio, Jacob said: “If we look at where they both are right now, and they continue on their trajectories that they have set themselves on...

Mauricio Is A Rare Talent With Room To Grow

One of the very first things new GM Brodie Van Wagenen said was “We will win now, and we will win in the future.” Using a roster filled with talented arms and bats, then supplemented by making a flurry of moves, headlined by the acquisitions of Robinson Cano, Edwin Diaz, and Wilson Ramos, among many others, is very clearly part of the plan to win now. One of the very special and talented pieces...

2017 Top Mets 30 Prospects: No. 11 Wuilmer Becerra, OF

#11 OF Wuilmer Becerra Ht: 6’3”  Wt: 225  Level: High-A St. Lucie Mets B/T: R/R Age: 10/01/1994 (22) Age Dif: -1.7 Acquired: Part of seven player trade from the Toronto Blue Jays Last Year: #6 2016 Statistics: 65 G, 247 AB, 27 R, 77 H, 17 2B, HR, 34 RBI, 9 BB/52 K, 7 SB, .319/.341/.393 Wuilmer Becerra has often mentioned as the afterthought, a throw-in flyer prospect in the R.A. Dickey trade...

2017 Top 30 Prospects: #9 Andres Gimenez, SS

Ht: 6’0”  Wt: 165  Level: DSL Mets  – Dominican Summer League B/T: L/R Age: 9/04/1998 (17) Age Dif: -1.7 Acquired: Signed as an IFA in 2015 for $1.2 MM bonus Last Year: #28 2016 Statistics:  62 G, 214 AB, 52 R, 75 H, 20 2B, 4 3B, 3 HR, 38 RBI, 46 BB, 22 K, 13 SB, .350/.469/.523 In 2015, the Mets continued their organizational philosophy of prioritization of up the middle positional players...

2014 Mets Top Prospects: No. 4 Dominic Smith, 1B

4. Dominic Smith, 1B Height: 6’0” Weight: 185 lbs. Age: 18 Bats/Throws: Left/Left The Mets drafted a 17 year old Dominic Smith with the 11th overall pick of last year’s draft and he didn’t waste any time showing off his skills. In 173 AB’s across the Gulf Coast League and Appalachian League, Smith slashed .301/.398/.439 with 3 HR’s, 26 BB’s, and 37 K’s. He has quite the advanced approach for an...

2014 Mets Top Prospects: No. 6 Wilmer Flores, 2B

No. 6 Wilmer Flores Height: 6’3” Weight: 190 lbs. Age: 22 Bats/Throws: Right/Right Wilmer Flores is a bit of a mystery. He was signed as a free agent out of Venezuela in 2007 and we’ve been hearing about him ever since. Earlier in his career, he drew comparisons to Miguel Cabrera, but those have since came back down to earth. He is similar to Cabrera in that his below average speed and slow...

2014 Mets Top Prospects: No. 7 Cesar Puello, OF

7. Cesar Puello, OF Height: 6’2” Weight: 195 lbs. Age: 22 Bats/Throws: Right/Right Some early 2014 Mets top prospect lists do not have Cesar Puello listed in their top 10. While I guess one could make a valid argument that Puello is not a top 10 prospect in the Mets organization, I bet most of these sites excluded him because of the Biogenesis scandal which to me, is ridiculous. Although the...

2014 Mets Top Prospects: No. 8 Amed Rosario, SS

8. Amed Rosario, SS Height: 6’2” Weight: 170 lbs. Age: 18 Bats/Throws: Right/Right I’m sure everyone has heard by now that Amed Rosario was ranked the number one prospect in the Appalachian League despite slashing .241/.279/.358 in 212 AB’s. He is still very much an extremely raw player so it’s a bit too early to start labeling him the next Troy Tulowitski but he’s a great player to dream...

2014 Mets Top Prospects: No. 9 Brandon Nimmo, OF

9. Brandon Nimmo, OF Height: 6’3” Weight: 185 lbs. Age: 20 Bats/Throws: Left/Right Like Cecchini, Brandon Nimmo was a first round draft pick that not everyone was thrilled about. However, in this case it was not about his lack of ceiling because he has plenty of that. Nimmo drew some criticism as the thirteenth overall pick of the 2011 draft because he did not play on a high school baseball team...
