2019 Mets draft profile: Joseph Charles

Born: Celebration, Florida

Age: 19 (4/05/00)

Height/Weight:

Position: RHP

Bats/Throws: R/R

School: TNXL Baseball Academy (Kissimmee, Florida)

Joseph Charles’ name has never been in the upper echelon of high school follows and prospects, but the right-hander has suited up with and against the likes of Carter Stewart, Nolan Gorman, Mason Denaburg, Gunnar Hogland and Matthew Liberatore and has held his own against them, and as compared to them. The right-hander initially attended The First Academy, a private Christian school in Orlando, Florida but transferred to the TNXL Baseball Academy this past spring after the academy moved to the Osceola County Sports Complex, roughly 15 minutes from his home and where he usually practiced in his spare time to begin with.
