Rosario Hoping To Improve Plate Discipline

There was a glaring hole in the game of New York Mets shortstop Amed Rosario in his major league stint last year and was plate discipline. Rosario, 22, walked only three times in 170 big league plate appearances. His 1.8% walk rate was the lowest among 376 major leaguers that had at least 170 plate appearances in 2017. The lack of walks weren’t the only proof of his free swinging, he also...

Do The Mets Have A Top 10 Farm System?

Matt Mosher writes… During a Baseball Prospectus Chat today, I asked Jason Parks, their head prospect guy, if the Mets farm was Top 10. (I assumed they were) He replied that they definitely were not. That’s noteworthy because I believe he ranked them at No. 10 last year. So, at least according to one outlet, the farm’s overall ranking has dropped. Be interesting to see if...

Dickey even before Tuesday’s Holiday Party at Citi Field. Besides the financial roadblocks, what became clearer yesterday was a underlying tension between team and player.
