alonso has to stop being taken out of the game, he's not a liability at 1b at all.

i'm starting to think footwork was the issue because he has good range

he was 3 for 4 last night with 2 homeruns and due up for another at bat, you don't take out the hitter that's on pace for 57 homeruns.
LOL Y U MAD THO?

that **** is starting to piss me off. Mets can’t scout there own players defensive abilities apparently lol.

All we heard when conforto was on the way is how he was a butcher boy in the field. Turns out he could be a serviceable CF and excellent in corners. Now Alonzo was suppose to be a butcher boy of the highest pedigree, and he’s looking good out there.

While the all natural Rosario struggles lol

Another Mets' debacle last night. Boy, when we lose, we do it very very well. Excruciating. I can't look at that dumbass in the dugout anymore.

last 2 picks are going to be overslots, with the 3rd round being a very hard sign.

but still it remains that the first 3 picks mets went with bpa, usually in previous mets drafts they're wasting round 2-10 for college bats so they can have slot money in the later rounds. brodie's regime is following the yankees/cubs/red sox/smart organization role of getting the best in the early rounds then the college bats later on.

but sometimes you get lucky with a college bat, like pete alonso.

info on mets 2nd and 3rd rounders.

Ranked #54 overall by BA

Josh Wolf
St. Thomas HS, Houston RHP
Ht: 6-2 | Wt: 165 | B-T: R-R
Commit/Drafted: Texas A&M

Scouting Report: After showing solid stuff but topping out in the low 90s for most of last summer, Wolf entered the spring solidly out of Day 1 consideration and behind a number of other Texas prep pitchers. That evaluation quickly changed, as Wolf came out this spring with added strength—he’s listed at 6-foot-2, 165 pounds but is likely heavier than that now—and started pitching consistently in the mid-90s and touched as high as 97 mph. In addition to his much-improved fastball velocity, Wolf spins a nasty curveball that looks like a big league breaking ball and is a surefire plus offering. The pitch settles in the mid- to upper 70s, while Wolf also throws a mid-80s changeup that could use some refinement. While there are still some command questions with Wolf, he has also improved in that regard. Those who know him are impressed with his dedication to his craft on the mound and his understanding of what he’s trying to accomplish when he’s on the rubber. Previously, Wolf would have been a safe bet to reach campus at Texas A&M, and he is expected to be a reasonably tough sign. But now, he’s pitching at a clip that might push him into Day 1 consideration and make jumping straight into pro ball more likely.


Ranked #16 overall by BA

Matthew Allan
Seminole HS, Sanford, Fla. RHP
Ht: 6-3 | Wt: 210 | B-T: R-R
Commit/Drafted: Florida

Scouting Report: Allan has been one of the most consistent prep pitchers in the 2019 class this spring. In fact, his consistency and continued improvement has helped vault the righthander into his current status as the top prep arm available in this year’s draft. Over the summer, Allan showed one of the better pure fastballs among prep pitchers, regularly sitting in the mid-90s. He paired his fastball with a true, 12-to-6 curveball, and both pitches could project as 70-grade offerings down the line. He’s shown the same quality of stuff this spring, but he’s improved his strike-throwing ability with both pitches while also cleaning up his strong, 6-foot-3, 210-pound frame. Allan has always had the look of a durable, innings-eating starter, but scouts had previously questioned how well he’d be able to maintain his physique. After his performances this spring, those concerns have quieted. Allan throws out of a slow windup and a three-quarter arm slot—a clean delivery and arm action that most teams are on board with. While Allan’s fastball/curveball combination is the bread and butter of his arsenal—and what will make him a first-round pick this June—he’s also shown a firm, upper-80s changeup that could become an average third offering. Like many amatuer pitchers, he doesn’t throw his changeup often, but scouts have seen it enough to think it could be a weapon for him as he furthers his development. Allan is committed to Florida, but he should be one of the first pitchers selected in this year’s draft.

mets just drafted a senior which means they're probably confident they can sign allen.
