Jacob Reimer hit three home runs in a 15-1 blowout win for the Cyclones, Syracuse lost both games of a double-header, St. Lucie won in extra innings behind a big day for Trey Snyder,  and Ryan Lambert made his Double-A debut for Binghamton in their 3-2 win on Wednesday.

Triple-A

Syracuse Mets (13-15) 0, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (13-14) 2/ 7 INNINGS

BOX SCORE

Syracuse managed two hits and five total baserunners on the day, which was a makeup of the April 29th game. They were stifled by Yankees prospect Sean Boyle for 5 1/3 innings. Luke Ritter has struggled in 2025, with an OPS under .600, and he has failed to hit a home run in 81 at-bats after hitting 26 last season. Jakson Reetz, despite a .180 batting average, has an OPS of .768.

Brandon Sproat has yet to find consistency in Triple-A, with another short start that has lacked the dominance he showed across two levels in 2024, struggling with control and pitch location despite great stuff. Lefty Anthony Gose may be a name to watch for the Mets based on the recent, potentially season-ending injuries to Danny Young and A.J. Minter. Gose has struck out 14 over 11 1/3 innings, however, he has also walked seven.

Syracuse Mets (13-16) 0, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (14-14) 5 / 7 INNINGS

BOX SCORE

  • CF Drew Gilbert- 1-for-3, 1 K (.711 OPS)
  • 3B Brett Baty – 1-for-3, 1 K (1.214 OPS)
  • 1B Joey Meneses – 2-for-3, 2B (.853 OPS)
  • LF Jared Young – 0-for-3, 1 K (1.167 OPS)

In the second game of the day for Syracuse, the offense managed to get seven hits as opposed to the two hits in game one, but only one went for extra bases, and they failed to score a run. Joey Meneses has been a pleasant surprise, providing solid organizational depth, and in the event of an injury to a right-handed Mets hitter, could receive a call-up to the majors. Brett Baty has played well at Triple-A and was only sent down due to the roster crunch required by the activations of Jeff McNeil and Francisco Alvarez.

  • RHP Dom Hamel (4.20 ERA)  4 IP, 3 H, 4 ER, 2 BB, 7 K, 1 HR allowed (45 of 69 pitches for strikes)
  • RHP Grant Hartwig (4.15 ERA) 2 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 3 K

Dom Hamel had seven strikeouts on the day, but was victimized by a three-run homer that turned his solid day into an outing that looks much worse than it was. Grant Hartwig chipped in with three strikeouts over two innings while allowing a run. With no offense on the day, the pitchers needed to be perfect, and unfortunately, they just weren’t.

Double-A

Binghamton Rumble Ponies (13-9) 3, Erie SeaWolves (15-8) 2

BOX SCORE

On Wednesday, the Rumble Ponies fought hard to secure their win over Erie. They got out to an early lead, putting up three runs by the fourth inning. In the bottom of the fifth inning, Erie put up two runs to cut the lead down to one. William Lugo had a great day at the plate, going 3-for-4 with two RBIs and a double. Kevin Parada went 1-for-4 with no strikeouts, but still has an OPS of .418. Binghamton struck out 11 times to only one walk.

Zach Thornton made his Double-A debut and looked solid, allowing two runs on five hits, including a home run. Thornton looks to be another fast riser in the Mets system after a stellar 2024, and a great start to his 2025 season saw him promoted to Double-A before May 1st. Ryan Lambert, also recently promoted, made his debut for the Rumble Ponies and also looked strong, striking out two in an inning of work as well as walking two. Douglas Orellana came out to secure the save and has been having quite the season as well, striking out two on Wednesday and 16 for the season over 10 1/3 innings.

High-A

Brooklyn Cyclones (15-7) 15, Wilmington Blue Rocks (7-16) 1

BOX SCORE

  • DH Jacob Reimer – 3-for-5, 3 R, 3 HR (5), 5 RBI (21), 1 K (1.042 OPS)
  • C Ronald Hernandez – 4-for-4, 3 R, 2 HR (2), 4 RBI (11), SB (7) (.772 OPS)
  • LF Carson Benge – 2-for-5, 3B, R, CS (1) (.845 OPS)
  • CF A.J. Ewing – 1-for-4, R, RBI (1), SB (2), 1 BB, 2 K (.522 OPS)
  • 2B Marco Vargas – 1-for-4, 3B, 2 RBI (4), 3 K (.717 OPS)
  • RF Eli Serrano III – 1-for-5, 3B, 2 R, RBI (13), 2 K (.820 OPS)
  • SS Boston Baro – 2-for-2, 2 R, 1 K (.568 OPS)

The Cyclones’ offense was firing on all cylinders on Wednesday, scoring a run in six of the eight innings they hit. Jacob Reimer dominated in the game, hitting three home runs and pushing his OPS over 1.000. Ronald Hernandez, acquired in the 2023 David Robertson trade along with Marco Vargas, had himself a day, going 4-for-4 with two homers and a steal, upping his OPS to .772 on the day. Every Brooklyn player managed a hit, and all but one scored a run. The Cyclones weren’t only hitting the ball out of the park as they managed three triples as well. The Cyclones’ lineup is loaded with prospects, so every game for them will be a must-watch to see the potential future pieces in Flushing.

As good as the offense was, the pitching was just as impressive. Joel Díaz continued his ascent up the prospect ladder in his return from injury, turning in his longest start of the season, allowing one run on three hits while striking out six. The rest of the bullpen teamed up for four scoreless innings, including Chandler Marsh and Ryan Ammons keeping their ERAs at 0.00 with solid one-inning outings each.

Low-A

St. Lucie Mets (13-10) 8, Palm Beach Cardinals (14-9) 6

BOX SCORE

The offense today was initiated by the top of the order, top prospects Trey Snyder and Jeremy Rodriguez both had great days at the plate, combining for seven hits. Daiverson Gutierrez hit his first Low-A home run of the season. Simon Juan, who has struggled thus far this season, had a nice day at the plate, going 2-for-5 and, despite an outfield error, made a key outfield assist to throw a runner out at third trying to advance on a fly ball. Most of the younger hitters on the team have struggled early on, but seem to be finding their footing.

  • RHP Matt Allan (2.25 ERA) 2 IP, 2 H, 1 BB, 3 K (23 of 37 pitches for strikes)
  • RHP Frank Elissalt (0.90 ERA) 2/3 IP
  • RHP Hoss Brewer (0.73 ERA) 2 2/3 IP, 1 H, 1 unearned run, 2 BB, 3 K

Matt Allan was solid in his two-inning start, allowing two hits while striking out three and walking one. The Mets have been careful with Allan, not trying to push his pitch-counts up early, which is to be expected considering he hasn’t pitched in a game in nearly four years. Channing Austin had a forgettable outing that was not helped by his defense. Hoss Brewer came out and earned the win after he blew the save with two and two-thirds innings of good pitching to keep St. Lucie in the game.
