The Mets have selected the contract of right-handed pitching prospect Dom Hamel from Triple-A Syracuse to the major league roster. If and when Hamel enters into a game for the Mets, it will be to make his big league debut. Hamel is ranked as the Mets’ No. 27 prospect according to MLB Pipeline, and No. 45 on Mike Mayer’s midseason top-50 Mets prospects rankings. The Mets drafted him in 2021...

For the second straight season, the Mets are inviting Dom Hamel to major league camp. Hamel was part of a trio of exciting Mets pitchers to get invited to spring training in 2024 (Mike Vasil and Christian Scott being the other two). Hamel had a rough 2024. It was so rough that at Metsmerized, he isn’t even considered a Top 30 prospect ahead of the 2025 season. Dom made 27 starts for Syracuse in...

The team’s 40-man roster remains at 34 players. However, this means that Dom Hamel, Mike Vasil, Luke Ritters, and other players listed below are now exposed to being taken in the draft. If they are, they must remain on the...
Like fellow top prospect Jett Williams, Drew Gilbert lost most of his 2024 season due to an early-season injury. An April hamstring strain held him out until late July, but he struggled mightily once he returned–slashing .189/.274/.368 (.615) in his first full month back. But the former first-round pick is rounding into form right as the Triple-A season reaches its conclusion. While his...
In unlikely fashion, the 45-83 St Lucie Mets were the only affiliate to secure a win on Saturday. 2024 first-round pick Carson Benge led the way with three hits, two for extra bases, and a walk.
