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

We could be talking about our Future Top Prospect #LGM.
Lindor is only 30 and is on track to exceed the production of both Piazza and Beltran as Mets in the next couple years. He is going to easily outproduce the contract and as long as his defense remains good he will be a useful player.
J-Rod may not even stick at SS. In fact im not sure there's a SS in the entire system with GG upside defensively. DMM?
Thanks for these monthly minors threads. They're the highlight of the season since the big club is circling the drain and going nowhere fast.
99th percentile on baseball savant (so basically #1 in OAA at +7)
while hitting at a 26 homer 81 rbis pace.
of all the problems in this organization he is at the absolute bottom of the list.

I don’t think the Mets have a clear “he’s 100% a SS in the system” (big league level) let alone a plus one. J-Rod could stick but he may not, Elian Pena almost certainly won’t, Baro is probably a 3B (he could stick) but plus defensive SS? Don’t see a clear one in the system right now. Jett Williams, J-Rod etc probably averageish as MLB SS defensively if they stick there.

No one on the system at SS with GG defense. Most of our guys at SS might even project off SS. Acuna was probably the best MI defender but he wont be at SS. De Oleo might be considered the best defensively at this point but he's only in FCL. With all that said I don't really trust defensive reporting in the minors as I've seen most of the major outlets are wrong. Alvarez being the biggest miss recently.

Off the top of my head for May I would say it's been Ronald Hernandez and Nick Morabito for Player. Pitcher probably Sproat or Tidwell.
lindor is a better ss than jeter ever was and jeter played a positive value ss until he was 36.
brandon crawford won a gold glove at 34 a few years ago.
jimmy rollins was playing a good short stop into his mid-30's.
i dont think his offense is going to go below league average - and right now his rc is 100 so even if it is there or slightly below, that will still be a guy with surplus value.
if lindor simply continues staying healthy and playing good D that will actually end up one of the best big contracts in team history, if not the outright best. almost definitely the most productive.

That's a great idea! What do you guys think? I vote yes. At least we can nominate who think stands out.
