All things being equal, in a list of top 30 players in the league, each team should have between 8-9 players on the list and a player appearing every 30 spots or so. Below is a list of the players that made the updated top 250 list over at ESPN with their position number:
84. Matt Harvey
87. David Wright
111. Jacob deGrom
127. Daniel Murphy
137. Lucas Duda
169. Zack Wheeler
193. Curtis Granderson
221. Michael Cuddyer
The Mets are on the lower end of the 8-9 players on the list, but they got 8. They missed players in top 80 spots, but a lot of players are grouped together. Honestly though, on fantasy rankings, I haven’t seen Mets ranked like this since Jose Reyes / David Wright Team to Beat Days, so this is nice.
In addition to the above:
Travis d’Arnaud is the 15th best catcher
Lucas Duda is the 19th best first basemen
Daniel Murphy is the the 10th best second basemen
David Wright is the 9th best third basemen
Curtis Granderson is the 54th best outfielder
Michael Cuddyer is the 61st best outfielder
Juan Lagares is the 82nd best outfielder
Matt Harvey is the 21st best starting pitcher
Jacob deGrom is the 28th best starting pitcher
Zack Wheeler is the 43rd best starting pitcher
Jon Niese is the best 76th best starting pitcher
Jenrry Mejia is the 35th best reliever*
Jeurys Familia is the 39th best reliever
Bobby Parnell is the 45th best reliever
*Jenrry Mejia rankings are hurt because he is also listed as a starter, actually the 72nd starter.
