Read: Mets Prospects, Video of Ike, and Draft Picks
In the New York Post, Joel Sherman quotes an American League GM as 
saying, ‘The Mets minor league talent is way under the talent base of the Phillies, Braves and Marlins.’
…i have talked with a few agents who represent young talent, and keep a close eye on the minor leagues, and, basically, no one person would say one way or the other how they feel about the Mets prospects… in short, they all feel Ike Davis is the closest person the team has to a ‘sure-thing,’ and someone they would rush to represent, but he only played in 59 games with Double-A last season… so, basically, the jury is still out on everyone, from davis to Jenrry Mejia…
Speaking of prospects…
To check out video of Davis hitting a double and a 400 foot home run in the Arizona Fall League, go to Mets Minor League Blog.
…he drops his hands, which end up in a strong hitting position, but that will do him zero good against a high-in-the-zone, major-league fastball… nevertheless, he has a long, fluid swing… i look forward to watching him play in spring training…
To see video and read a scouting report of Mets 23-year-old pitcher Eric Beaulac, go to Mike Newman’s Scouting the Sally.
Beaulac was 7–7 with a 2.95 ERA in 116 innings, during which he struck out 133 batters, for Low-A Savannah.
Speaking of prospects, check out Ken Davidoff’s report in today’s Newsday, in which he explains how draft-pick compensation will work for the Mets next season, based on this year’s free-agent class.
