MMO Top 25 Mets Prospects (Mid-Season Update)

We present our Mets Midseason Top 25 Prospects. It’s just a quick and cursory look at our rankings before we get to work on our annual and much more extensive 2015 Top Prospects list in February. It was comprised from the individual rankings of myself and my minor league aficionados Kirk, Teddy, Brian and Connor. We then reproduced the list using rank points from all five lists. It gives a good indication of how we see the rankings before we hit the ballparks, speak to scouts, watch a bunch of video and hit the books to prepare for our major top prospect roll-out next year. Enjoy…
