Nolan McLean was ranked 72nd (previously 99th) on the list, which comes out two days after the 23-year-old right-hander received a promotion to Triple-A Syracuse. Before his promotion, McLean pitched to a 1.37 ERA and struck out 30 batters in 26 1/3 innings for Binghamton.
Brandon Sproat, the standout star of the Mets’ farm system during spring training, just made the list, coming in at 99 (previously 61st). Sproat has struggled early on in the minor league season, pitching to a 5.48 ERA for Syracuse.
Mets infield prospect Jesus Baez, who was included in Baseball America’s list earlier this year, dropped out of the top 100. He’s struggled to begin the season with a .530 OPS combined OPS between Low-A St. Lucie and High-A Brooklyn.
