Yesterday we looked at the Mets in the top 100 MLB.com Prospects list which included Noah Syndergaard (#10), Kevin Plawecki (#63), Steven Matz (#66), Brandon Nimmo (#73) and Michael Conforto (#82). Today we’ll look at the Baseball Prospectus version:
9. Noah Syndergaard
33. Steven Matz
69. Brandon Nimmo
78. Ahmed Rosario
80. Kevin Plawecki
82. Dilson Herrera
So Baseball Prospectus ranked Noah a little higher, Matz considerably higher, Nimmo higher and actually ranked Rosario and Herrera. They didn’t rank Michael Conforto. The obvious comparison is while MLB.com had 5 prospects, Baseball Prospectus had 6, so they seem to be a bit higher on the Mets farm system.
I want to win now. I know prospects break your heart, but I’m so excited about seeing Syndergaard and Matz mature, what happens when Rosario makes it (because I’m losing hope in ever getting a short stop) and seeing what the Mets end up doing with both d’Arnaud and Plawecki.
