After what’s felt like years of the New York Mets not having a deep farm system, the organization finally has some solid prospects that are garnering national attention.
MLB Pipelines top 100 prospects ranking were released on Friday, and the Mets have four prospects that made the cut. They’re tied for first among NL teams in that regard.
After reading the list, Mets fans can’t help but wonder how different things would be, had the team not made some trades that involved some other top prospects.
The most notable are Jarred Kelenic, who was dealt to the Seattle Mariners in exchange for Robinson Cano and Edwin Diaz, and Simeon Woods-Richardson, who went to the Toronto Blue Jays for Marcus Stroman.
