Marco Vargas is injured, unclear if it's the same issue that has limited him to 3 games and a previous IL stint
-Infielder/centerfielder Jett Williams, the Mets’ top prospect, went on the seven-day injured list with Double-A Binghamton because of a right wrist issue.
After he jammed it, sat out for a week and didn’t feel well enough to play, the Mets opted to officially sideline him. He might get a cortisone injection, and the Mets are inclined to take his return very slowly, given his importance to the organization.
Before getting hurt, Williams was off to a slow start at the plate, batting .180 with a .668 OPS. He also played several games at second base, his first professional exposure to that position, his potential eventual defensive home.
Saul Garcia (received a nice report from @BaseballAmerica before the season) has been activated from the 7 day IL. Garcia has stuck out 7 over 3.2 innings of work for @stluciemets. He figures to join @BKCyclones shortly

Two Mets in Kiley McDaniel's updated Top 50 prospects:
No. 18 Christian Scott
No. 24 Jett Williams
debut) #Mets NICE!
The Merc is racking up the wildest pitching line I've ever seen....walks, Wild Pitch, HBP and ZERO runs allowed !!
Remember that reliever that Earl Weaver used to call Full Pack ?
Baez pulled for a pinch runner. Not great
He was likely pulled due to injury as St. Lucie led 7-5 at the time. Obviously, it's possible he was sick or did something to get pulled but for now, one has to assume it's an injury.
@TJStats
Not a large sample, but his contact rates are better than last season
He is also making better swing decisions. Will be interesting to see how this develops

I hope Blade Tidwell gets the start in one of the SYR games today.
Just googled Joel Diaz to get some background. The first google response was a Mexican Pro Boxer -- should come in handy if there's a benches clearing brawl HA
The second google answer was a 20 year old RHP from the Dominican. Good size at 6'2" and 208 lbs.

It should be Tidwell but I said the same thing yesterday haha but unless he has some unknown physical issue (I'm not hinting that he does) he almost certainly will go today he last pitched on the 16th.
Joel Diaz was as high as the #9 prospect in the Mets system (2022) for BA, had a solid/decent 2022 considering he was 18 (4.79 FIP over 55.1 innings) and then needed TJ. Very talented kid, not saying he's the next Pedro Martinez but once you get past Tidwell, Sproat, McLean. Tong group I wouldn't confidently put any of the other arms ahead of him (I'm doing 2 things at once so if I forgot another glaring omission, so be it lol).

Acuña's 2b was 108.6mph. batting average getting close to .250, ops closing in on 650. Not great but he's now 1 hot month away from respectable enough numbers to consider a call up (would be a good solution to the MI depth situation too).
Tidwell 4 innings 2 hits 1 run 3 walks 3 k’s, 70 pitches/43 strikes

i agree but there's no way im aware of to get a rc that's split out from his full year (fg doesnt have minors splits)?
he started slow but 6 xbh in may so far after today and going into today had more hits in may than april. looks like his season has been progressive, if he can put up a month around 110-120 rc i think he becomes an option.
sort of like PCA he may not be ready, but he still may be the best option. id rather give him the shot than iglesias if he's at all ready for it.

Lineup is extremely boring prospect wise until Gilbert returns at some point in June
