A plethora of New York Mets prospects continued their fall and winter league action on Tuesday. Read about it below!
AFL Action
Three Mets scored runs as the Surprise Saguros drubbed the Scottsdale Scorpions 10-2.
Cole Mathis was the only Mets-affiliated prospect to start. He chipped in a walk before being removed for Phillies prospect Aaron Escoabar.
The Mets’ return for David Peterson has posted just a .160 average with a .622 OPS, but is second on the team with 17 walks.
Both Boston Baro and Bruin Agbayani came off the bench. Baro singled to boost his fall OPS to .707. Similar to many AFL participants, Baro’s been beset by injuries over the last few seasons and is using the AFL to make up for lost at-bats.
He is the only homegrown Mets hitter in the AFL
Meanwhile, Agbayani filled up the box score, tallying a hit, run, and RBI during the Saguros’ six-run third.
No Mets pitchers appeared in the game.

Winter League Action
Three Mets farmhands participated in the Leones de Ponce’s 10-inning, 3-2 defeat against the Indios de Mayaguez.
Jacob Reimer was held hitless, but still has a 1.068 OPS in 17 at-bats. He posted a nice outing on Monday, knocking two extra-base hits, including a home run.
Despite his 0-for, he slid from hot corner to first base in the ninth inning, displaying positional flexibility. He only played first base 11 times in 2026, but it behooves both the Mets and Reimer to keep the 22-year-old at both positions for the time being.
His Rumble Pony teammate, John Bay, has held his head above water in the PRWL, posting a .712 OPS. Bay joined the team after a late-season promotion to the Binghamton Rumble Ponies from the Brooklyn Cyclones. It’s his second post-regular-season stint, after a three-game cup of coffee with the AFL’s Scottsdale Scorpions in 2025.
On Tuesday night, Bay tallied a single and added a bases-on-balls. With a successful 2027, he could earn time patrolling Citi Field’s vast outfield.
His 2026 teammate Eli Serrano III has fought through a litany of injuries during his time in the Mets’ system, but is making up for lost at-bats overseas.
Serrano followed Reimer in the order, tallying a single and scoring half of the Leones’ two runs.
Fresh off a grand slam in his last game, Mets middle-infield prospect Antonio Jimenez chipped in two singles and drove in a run for San Juan in their 7-4 defeat against Santurce.
He’s turned a corner in Puerto Rico, slashing .500/.571/.748 (1.319 OPS), a stark contrast to his .649 regular-season OPS across two levels in the Mets’ organization in 2026.
With each successful game, he puts his trying regular-season numbers even further in the rearview mirror. MetsMinors.Net recently posted an interview with Antonio, where he discussed his time with the Mets’ hitting lab.
In Venezuela, Mets’ backstop Luis Torrens continued his journey around the diamond, trading in the tools of ignorance in exchange for nine innings at first base.
At the dish, he contributed to Navegantes’s 11-0 shellacking, singling and scoring twice.
In Ronny Mauricio‘s sixth foray with the Tigres de Licey, he’s been held to a .740 OPS. He was silenced on Tuesday, going 0-for-four with a walk. Juan Soto and an entourage recently attended a DOWL game to cheer on Mauricio.
Rumble Ponies infielder Marco Vargas went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Obregón’s 5-4 defeat against the Hermosillo Naranjeros. After playing up the middle in 2026 for both the Brooklyn Cyclones and Binghamton Rumble Ponies, Vargas lined up at the hot corner on Tuesday.
