Prospects: Two Mets in Futures Game
The Mets will have two prospects in this afternoon’s All Star Futures Game in St. Louis.
RHP pitcher Jenrry Mejia, who has recently been clocked at 102 mph during a Double-A game, will be one of the prospects playing for Team World.
Mejia was 4-1 with a 1.97 ERA for St. Lucie, and is 0-3 with a 3.74 ERA since his promotion to Binghamton.
In addition, 17 year old Wilmer Flores will also represent Team World.
Flores is hitting a respectable .280 for Single-A Savanah but his on-base percentage is just .319.
…he is only 17 and there is plenty of time for Flores to mature before he ever puts on a Major League Uniform..from what we saw in Spring Training this year, I think there is a lot to be excited about with this kid and I am looking forward to watching him and Mejia in today’s game…
