Mets prospect Desmond Lindsay continues to struggle in minors

When players get drafted by an organization, their vision tends to be a straight shot to the major leagues after spending some times in the minors. No one ever truly thinks they’ll be in the minor leagues for an extended amount of time. For New York Mets prospect Desmond Lindsay, it’s been anything but a cakewalk since he began his professional career.

Since being drafted in the second round of the 2015 draft, he has yet to move past the Single-A level. Although his age is a major factor in that, as he was drafted at the age of 18, his bat has yet to show why he should have been promoted any sooner.
