Meet the Mets: Who is Johneshwy Fargas?

When the Mets added two more names to the injured list on Monday, one of the players recalled was Johneshwy Fargas.

The 26-year-old outfielder jumped into the lineup and collected his first hit, driving in his first career RBI in the process.

Fargas, a native of Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico, was originally drafted in the 11th round (342nd overall) by the San Francisco Giants in 2013 (signed for $100,000). Entering the 2021 season, Fargas was not ranked among the top 30 prospects in the Mets’ system by MLB Pipeline.
