Vientos 1-4, K
In total last year he had 40 XBH in 122 games across A+/AA. Exceeding that number this year at AA (or higher) would be a big accomplishment. For comparison, Rosario had 42 XBH in his break out 20 year old season (2016). And to pre-empt the obligatory Tejada comp he had 32 in his breakout AA season. So maintaining his current 50+ XBH pace would be very good.

Dunn's early splits vs. L look really good so far too (.161 vs. .290 last year) - so he may have taken a big step forward.
If Diaz continues to pitch the way he is we'll feel fine about that deal the same way we'd all still do the Cespedes/Fulmer deal.
I'm comfortable the Mets can compete as presently constituted if the pitching gets their head out of their ass.
I'd add Gio, but also try and cling to life until draft day for Keuchel. Shecky has mentioned a couple times when discussing Keuchel's cost "...and a draft pick"
I don't get that the Mets were willing to trade essentially two first round picks for a closer, but not 1 second for a middle of the rotation starter. I hope that's not the reason they're not more aggressively pursuing Keuchel.

Obviously it's a new regime, but 2nd round picks recently have delivered as much value as our firsts - SWR, Vientos, Alonso (Kay sandwich round). Gio has always been a no-brainer to me. If they added Keuchel I'd obviously be ok with it, it's just frustrating vs. the alternatives that wouldn't have required any compensation a month or two ago when it was just as painfully obvious they were 2-3 pitchers short entering and spending $5-10m worth of 1 year deals would have gone a long way.
