Mets’ Top Prospect Could Contribute In Majors This Season
ESPN’s new Top 100 MLB Prospect list was released, featuring six players within the New York Mets' organization. And above all other Mets prospects at No. 31 on the list, sits shortstop Jett Williams. Who is Williams? And what places him at the top of the Mets' prospect list? The 20-year-old has had to fight the odds at every level of baseball being one of the smallest at his position, but has always outworked his counterparts and set high goals for himself, even since high school.
Have The New York Mets Done Enough This Offseason?
Coming off a disappointing 2023 campaign that saw them miss the playoffs a year removed from a 101-61 season, Steve Cohen and the New York Mets were faced with massive roster gaps to fill to try and get back to success in 2024. Have they done so? Let’s take a look at how things are shaping up for the 2024 season. A lot of the reinforcements have arrived in the form of pitchers thus far, with New York in need of some additions in the bullpen and in the rotation.
Dodgers Fireballer Could Be Key Addition To Yankees’ Bullpen
On December 11th, the New York Yankees acquired Victor Gonzalez along with prospect Jorbit Vivas in a trade with the Los Angeles Dodgers, giving away Top 10 prospect Trey Sweeney in the process. The deal was made so that Los Angeles could clear a roster spot for incoming superstar Shohei Ohtani. However, it wasn’t all about the Dodgers in this deal, as New York was able to acquire a prospect of similar stature in Vivas and potentially fill a massive need in the bullpen with Gonzalez.
Five Pitching Options For Yankees After Missing Out On Yoshinobu Yamamoto
On December 6th, the New York Yankees pulled the trigger on a massive trade for Juan Soto in hopes of bouncing back from a subpar 82-win season in 2023. There is no doubt the talent and firepower that comes with the addition of the three-time All-Star immediately raises the ceiling of this Yankee roster, but such a player does come at a large cost and New York will need to fill in some holes left by the blockbuster deal.
Where Mets Can Pivot If They Miss Out On Free Agent Superstar
With the offseason in full swing, owner Steve Cohen and New York Mets fans around the world are waiting anxiously for the decision of one Yoshinobu Yamamoto, a pitcher who shattered records in Japan and is expected to be an immediate ace for a World Series contender. However, Cohen and his team will have a lot of competition for the 25-year-old right-hander.
Who Should The Yankees Move in a Trade for Juan Soto?
As the MLB offseason gets into full swing, the New York Yankees and San Diego Padres have been in discussions over superstar Juan Soto. With the rumor mill heating up in this area, it’s time to look at some potential names that could be thrown into the deal. Soto has been a superstar since he arrived on the scene as a Washington National in 2018. He finished second for NL Rookie of the Year and followed that campaign up with three consecutive seasons where he finished in the top 10 in MVP voting.
Should The Mets Trade These Top Prospects For Juan Soto?
With a disappointing 2023 campaign in the rearview and a vital 2024 season on the horizon, the New York Mets are in the midst of a massive offseason faced with many big questions in regards to their roster. While last season made it seem like New York is quite a ways away from contending for a World Series, team owner Steve Cohen does not seem keen on waiting any longer to bring a contender to Mets fans, expressing his desire to be aggressive on the free agent and trade markets.
