The Mets had three prospects earn Player of the Week honors in their respective leagues this past week.
Double-A Eastern League Pitcher of the Week
RHP Jonah Tong
Tong, 21, earned Eastern League Pitcher of the Week for the second consecutive week. After tossing 6 2/3 perfect innings with 13 strikeouts on May 10 vs. Reading, he followed up his perfect performance with six scoreless innings on Saturday with eight strikeouts at Hartford. Tong allowed just two hits and two walks on 94 pitches en route to a 12-0 Binghamton win.
Tong continues an ultra-impressive start to his 2025 campaign, spotting a 2.12 ERA and 1.00 WHIP with 59 strikeouts over 34.0 innings. He has at least eight strikeouts in each of his last five starts. Among the 327 minor league pitchers with at least 30 innings this season, Tong’s 43.4 K% is the best.

Double-A Eastern League Hitter of the Week
OF Nick Morabito
The Rumble Ponies swept Player of the Week honors, with Morabito taking Eastern League Hitter of the Week. Morabito slashed .462/.517/.731 this past week and is in the midst of a nine-game hitting streak. Morabito has also racked up seven stolen bases over his last eight games, bringing his total to 14 for the season. The outfielder swiped 59 bags in 2024 and seems well on his way to another 40+ SB in 2025. Morabito came in 16th on Baseball America’s 20 hottest MLB prospects.
Morabito, 22, is hitting .263/.322/.436 in 38 games this season for Double-A Binghamton.
High-A South Atlantic League Player of the Week
OF/2B A.J. Ewing
Ewing, 20, has been one of the best players in all the minor leagues this year and did not slow down this past week. Ewing spotted a .500/.609/.722 slash line and is riding a 10-game hitting streak. The red-hot prospect has also racked up six stolen bases over his last four games, bringing his 2025 total to 27, which is good for third-most across all of MiLB.
Ewing spots an impressive .381/.477/.587 slash line over 126 ABs 2025. His .381 average and .477 OBP both rank top 5 among all MiLB players with at least 100 PAs.
