Today is Day 3 of the 2023 MLB draft, and the Mets will have 10 picks across the remaining 10 rounds. These 10 rounds are not tied to the bonus slot pool money from the first 10 rounds as long as the player doesn’t sign for more than $125,000. If a player does sign for more than that, it counts toward the team’s overall pool money ($8,440,400).
Here are the Mets’ 13 picks so far:
- Round 1, Pick 32: Colin Houck, SS (HS), $2.61 million slot value
- Round 2, Pick 56: Brandon Sproat, RHP, $1.47 million slot value
- Round 3, Pick 91: Nolan McLean, RHP/OF (two-way player), $747,600 slot value
- Round 3, Pick 101 (comp pick for not signing Sproat in 2022): Kade Morris, RHP, $666,500 slot value
- Round 4, Pick 123: Wyatt Hudepohl, RHP, $536,500 slot value
- Round 4, Pick 134 (comp pick for Jacob deGrom signing w/Rangers): AJ Ewing, SS (HS), $483,000 slot value
- Round 4, Pick 135 (comp pick for Chris Bassitt signing w/Blue Jays): Austin Troesser, RHP, $478,200 slot value
