NFT: Mets Minor League Discussion (August)

DanMetroMan : 8/1/2024 8:38 am

AAA-
Acuna 1-4, BB, SB, K (July OPS .555, he still may be up late in the season to provide speed/defense but his window for coming up and playing regularly this season has probably closed. He has to hit better)

Baty
1-4, 2b (Like much of the Mets system July was not a great month for Baty. It seems more likely than not he's going to be with another organization in 2025, maybe as part of a potential Alcantara deal? We shall see)

Ritter 1-4, HR (21st), 3 k's (he's now 3rd in the IL in HR's)

JBJ 1-4, HR, BB, K (also threw out a runner at the plate)

Jarvis 2 innings 6 hits 4 runs 2 walks 2 k's

J. Ramirez (skipped AA) 1 inning 1 hit 0 runs 1 walk 2 k's (FB up to 94)


AA
Ramirez 0-4 (just an atrocious season for Ramirez. Extremely high odds he's either dealt for a low level minor leaguer that doesn't need a 40 man spot, or is DFA'ed)

Rudick 2-4, 2B, K

Clifford 0-4, K (5 for his last 38. Still finishes July with an .873 OPS for the month, 30 k's over 83 ab's obviously is too many)

Consuegra 3-4, HR, K

Suarez 6 innings 1 hit 0 runs 0 walks 9 k's (took a perfect game into the 6th. He's a 6-year FA after the season so unless the Mets add him to the 40, he can sign explore opportunities with other teams)

SRF 1 perfect 3 k's


BK (game 1)
Morabito 1-4, 2 k's

Reimer 1-3

Suero 2-4, K (one of the best pure athletes in the organization)

Wenninger 4 innings 4 hits 2 runs 3 walks 5 k's (I suspect he ends up in the bullpen, but a quietly having a very solid season, his CU is a real weapon)

Herrera 1.1 innings 1 hit 0 runs 1 walk 2 k's (Really nice pickup on a minor league deal. He's made 12 appearances and has only allowed 1 ER while striking out 27 over 25.1 innings)

BK (game 2)

Morabito 1-4, 2 SB, K

Suero 1-3, BB, 2 SB

Tong 5.1 innings 6 hits 2 runs 1 walk 10 k's

St. Lucie

Baro 2-4, 2b (Very solid season for Baro, certainly one to watch going forward)

Ewing 1-5, 3B, 2 k's (has struggled post promotion to St. Lucie but has more power than his frame would suggest and remains one of the more intriguing young hitters in the system)

Hernandez 3-5 (one of the mst underrated performers in the system, questions regarding can he remain a C impact his projection, but could be a bat first MLB backup C who also sees some time at 1b)

Houck 1-4, HR, BB, 2 k’s , 3 errors(Very disappointing season for the Mets 2023 1st round pick)

Henriquez 1-5 (Not much power but this kid can HIT. If he can add some more strength he has a shot to be a big league utility player)

2nd appearance today - both out of the pen.

Based on the box scores looks like he did well. 3 hitless innings. 1BB and 3 Ks.

Why would they not be able to move him to 40 man?


They have to add him to the 40 to avoid that. Otherwise, he's a FA. They didn't add protect him from the rule 5 last season and he's still in AA after 137.1 innings pitched (a high number of innings to leave a 24 year old SP having success at a level) in today's game. Stearns has never mentioned him in interviews so it's unclear their view of him.

Stuart had near identical numbers to Suarez in AA and was often mentioned by the beats etc as somebody the team liked. Don't think I've seen a single mention of Suarez. Unclear, why he's still in AA to begin with.

AJ Ewing  
DanMetroMan : 8/27/2024 1:13 pm : link
12. A.J. Ewing, OF, Mets

Team: Low-A St. Lucie (Florida State)
Age: 20

Why He’s Here: .546/.615/1.570 (12-for-22), 6 R, 3 2B, 2 HR, 6 RBIs, 4 BB, 2 SO, 0 SB

The Scoop: The Mets went over slot to sign Ewing out of high school in the fourth round in 2023. He began this season in the Florida Complex League but showed big power and sound swing decisions to earn a promotion to Low-A after just 19 games. Ewing took time to adapt to the level but has put up a 1.019 OPS in August in the pitcher-friendly Florida State League. Drafted as a shortstop, he has focused on center field this season, with occasional work at second base as the Mets try to build in more positional versatility with their prospects this season. (ME

wonder if they consider giving him a look out of the BP down the stretch with big club.

but i guess fujinami looks like he's been good for the last month or so, so he's probably more likely if they choose anyone other than SRF or Brazoban when rosters expand. this is a long list of guys with 5+ eras. syracuse was probably not a very fun watch over the last month:

From  
DanMetroMan : 8/30/2024 11:28 am : link
3 days ago

"Scott (elbow) could begin throwing off a mound soon, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports."


I personally believe the most likely outcome is TJ for both Scott and probably Nunez as well but that's not coming from any inside information.

I did learn just yesterday that Brooks Raley and his agent were unhappy with the Mets/David Stearns regarding the handling of his elbow/TJ.

what is his status? Does he need to be added to the 40-man? Obviously after all this time any type of major league career is a long shot, but it would be a great story, and I'd hate for the Mets to lose him to another team for him to make his comeback.

Also, would AFL be an option for him?

I missed your second question. Yes, he's one of the names being mentioned as potential AFL additions. I was told Tebrake, Dylan Ross (has yet to throw a pro pitch) and Noah Hall are locks and that they intend to bring 5 pitchers. Robert Dominguez, Allan, Brett Banks and Raimon Gomez are 4 names I've heard are up for the other 2 spots (there are others as well but those 4 were said to me by name).
