One way or another, it looks like Carson Benge will be making his way onto the New York Mets roster. The question is when. The club's No. 2 overall prospect is highly anticipated, and with a strong spring training, could sneak onto the opening day roster as the starting left fielder.
There's some risk, though. Benge has only logged 24 games at Syracuse, and struggled to the tune of a .178/.272/.311 line. Even if the youngster impresses in the spring, we could find that with prolonged exposure, he might need to be sent back down for more seasoning.
