The Mets took a 10-4 lead to the 8th inning, but the combintion of Edgar Ramirez, Manuel Alvarez and Emary Frederick gave up 7 runs in the final 2 innings, leading to a stunning defeat. Alvarez' 3 runs in 0.1 innings were the first earned runs he's given up all season. Michael Antonini had a subpar outing, giving up 3 runs on 5 hits in 5.1 innings, but he was in line for the win before the bullpen meltdown. Eddie Kunz made a relief outing today, going 1.2 innings on 3 days rest.
The Mets offense crushed Akron pitching today, hammering out 17 hits and drawing 6 walks, while striking out just 5 times, and going a blistering 7 for 20 (.350) with RISP, though they did leave a ridiculous 15 on base, including 10 with RISP and 2 outs. Omir Santos took the only 0-fer of the game, many Mets had multi hit games.

Kyle Allen had a very bad first inning (was NOT helped out by back to back errors by Jordany Valdespin and Hector Pellot), he allowed 4 hits and 2 walks in the first, along with 5 runs (3 earned). Over the next 4 innings, he allowed just 1 hit and 2 walks, settling down very well after a rough first.
The Mets had 7 hits and 3 walks, while going hitless in 3 ABs with RISP, leaving 9 on, and striking out 6 times. Valdespin, and Joey August had multi hit games, while Hector Pellot (0 for 5, .250), Josh Satin (0 for 2, 2 BBs, 2 Ks, .316), Richard Lucas and Juan Centeno took 0-fers.

5/3 Minor League Report! WHAT DOES CHRIS CARTER HAVE TO DO?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
AAA International League: Buffalo 7/12/3, Louisville 20/24/1 (yikes)
The good news? The Bisons beat up on Aroldis Chapman today. The bad news? Louisville beat the snot out of every pitcher the Bisons sent out there, sans Bobby Parnell. The Bisons offense had 12 hits and a walk, while going 5 for 11 (.455) with RISP, leaving 7 on base and striking out 11 times. Jesus Feliciano, Chris Carter and Omir Santos had multi hit games, while Fernando took the only 0-fer.

Hi, I'd like to tell you a story, this is a story of how much Frank Catalanotto fucking sucks, doesn't deserve to be in the majors, let alone on the Mets, and how much Chris Carter does not suck, and does deserve to be in the majors, and on the Mets. It's a story of how much our bench blows because Catalanotto, a useless piece of shit, is on the bench, because GMJ, a even more useless piece of stinker shit is on the bench, a useless DP machine is on the bench, and the King of Nice Useless Shit is also on the bench. The moral of this story is DELETE THE DEADWOOD, RID YOURSELF OF RUBBISH, THROW OUT THE TRASH. Catalanotto, GMJ, Cora, Tatis out -----> Carter, Pridie, Russ Adams, Evans in. Thank you.

Eddie Kunz had a very odd outing today, he went 6 innings, his deepest outing since high school, and walked only 1, but recorded only 1 groundout versus 9 flyouts, a very un-Kunz like line. Still, he pitched very well, giving up just 6 hits and 2 runs (1 earned), taking a ND. Josh Stinson and Clint Everts blew saves in this game, Everts picked up the vulture win.
The Mets offense had 13 hits and 3 walks, while going 2 for 10 with RISP, leaving 8 on, and striking out 5 times. Lucas Duda, Carlos Guzman and Mike Nickeas had multi hit games, while Luis Hernandez (0 for 5, K, .323) took the only 0-fer.

Some shoddy defense and a terrible home plate ump, along with continued very uncharacteristic wildness doomed Kyle Allen tonight, as he allowed 6 runs on 6 hits and 4 walks in 4.2 innings. Angel Cuan made his high A debut tonight and was excellent, pitching 3.1 scoreless innings in long relief. The Mets offense had 9 hits and 2 walks, but were hitless in 7 ABs with RISP, left 7 on base and struck out 14 times. Reese Havens, Eric Campbell and Sean Ratliff had multi hit games, while Emmanuel Garcia (0 for 4, 4 Ks, .234), Richard Lucas and Luis Nieves (0 for 3, .160) took 0-fers.

MPH System Audit IV, Part I: Introduction and Outfielders
MPH System Audit IV
Welcome to the 2010 MetsProspectHub System Audit. This year, I consulted 3 other people to get their opinions and feelings. Of course, David, my cowriter (well, you know) and co-founder of MPH, and then a couple of very good friends, Joey DeMayo of NYbaseballdigest.com, and Daniel Wexler (http://www.nleastchatter.com/realdirtymets/)
2009 was a total mess...on the major league side. Mess really doesn't even begin to cover what happened to the New York Mets in 2009, but that's in the rearview mirror. On the minor league side, however, 2009 was one of the best seasons in a long time, and 2010 promises to be significantly more exciting. For the first time in what seems like forever, the Mets did not strip off any prospects during 2009, leaving a nice stable of VERY exciting prospects. Talking to Joe, Dan and David, none of them can remember the last time the Mets had this many prospects across the top 3 levels. Below are writeups on most of them.
MPH's Position by Position Prospect Analysis and Ranking
-featuring contributions from David, Dan and Joe, written by Tejesh
-thanks to NYFS (www.nyfuturestars.com) for having up to date player profile capsules with relevant information handy!
-B/T is next to age and is in that order
-prospect eligibility for MPH is hitherto defined as 200 ABs or 100 IP in the majors, without regard to days spent on the roster

OUTFIELDERS
-------------
1. AAA/MLB OF Fernando Martinez L/R 10/10/88 (AAA Buffalo .290/.337/.540/.877, 51 for 176, 24 runs, 16 2b, 2 3b, 8 HR, 28 RBI, 11/33 BB/K, 2/3 SBs, MLB New York .176/.242/.275/.517, 16 for 91, 11 runs, 6 2b, HR, 8 RBI, 5/14 BB/K, 2 SBs)
Total 2009 Stats: .251/.304/.449/.754, 67 for 267, 35 runs, 22 2b, 2 3b, 9 HR, 36 RBI, 4/5 SBs, 16/47 BB/K
The Mets signed Fernando out of the Dominican in the IFA signing period of 2005 for 1.3 million, and since then, he's made a slow trek through the system (due to injuries), but last season cracked through to the major leagues. He started off in Hagerstown in 2006, spent two seasons (2007, 2008) in Binghamton, and last season played in Buffalo, and had a 91 AB stint with the Mets.
Fernando got hurt again in 2009, but managed to make his major league debut after having a torrid month of May in Buffalo (.337/.378/.663/1.041, 31 for 92, 17 runs, 7 2b, 3b, 7 HR, 20 RBI, 6/12 BB/K). He injured himself trying to make a diving catch in Milwaukee, playing CF, and did not appear in a game again.
Fernando still has a very high ceiling, despite being around forever, he will play all of 2010 at the age of 22, which is right on target for AAA, which is where he should play the entire season. Fernando still has considerable power projection left to all fields, as he displays during BP. As we saw in 2009, Fernando is faster then we we led to believe, and he can definitely play center field, something we were told he couldn't do (ok, ok, one epic fall/slide aside), he was solid filling in for Beltran. He should also steal between 15 and 25 bases in a season, definitely not a slouch. He still projects as an above average offensive player, no matter what OF spot he ultimately ends up playing.
THE FUTURE: Fernando made his MB debut in 2009, but should open 2010 in Buffalo, and hopefully will spnd all of the upcoming season there, before being permanently inserted into the lineup in 2011.
2. A+/AA OF Kirk Nieuwenhuis L/R 8/7/87 (A+ St. Lucie .274/.357/.467/.824, 132 for 482, 91 runs, 35 2b, 5 3b, 16 HR, 71 RBI, 53/118 BB/K, 16/20 SBs, AA Binghamton .406/.472/.656/1.128, 13 for 32, 8 runs, 3 2b, 3b, HR, 2 RBI, 4/9 BB/K, 1/2 SBs)
Total 2009 Stats: .282/.364/.479/.843, 145 for 514, 99 runs, 38 2b, 6 3b, 17 HR, 73 RBI, 57/127 BB/K, 17/22 SBs, .247 K rate, .4488 BB/K ratio
The Mets drafted Nieuwenhuis out of Azusa Pacific University in the 3rd round of the 2008 draft, and he spent his rookie season with Brooklyn, before being bumped up to St. Lucie for 2009, where he got off to an uneven beginning.
Nieuwenhuis had one of the hottest stretches in all of minor league ball during the second half of 2009. Between July 8th and September 2nd, Kirk hit a blistering .340/.411/.602/1.013 (70 for 206, 47 runs, 20 2b, 5 3b, 8 HR, 40 RBI, 24/48 BB/K). He ended his season in Binghamton where he didn't slow down, hitting .406/.472/.656/1.128 in 32 ABs.
Nieuwenhuis, as we saw in 2009, hits tons of XBH. Of his 145 hits, 61 of them (42.06%) were for extra bases (38 2b, 6 3b, 17 HR). He hits the ball well to all fields, and is a gap to gap hitter , but he struggles against LHP (just .233/.297/.346/.642 in 2009 in St. Lucie), and he also Ks a ton (127 Ks in 514 ABs), but provides good production from the outfield to make up for it, and is a possible 20-20 or 25-25-25 player. Nieuwenhuis has a good arm and probably profiles best as a right fielder, but for at least 2010, he will play center.
THE FUTURE: Kirk had a 32 AB cameo in Binghamton at the tail end of 2009, and this is where he will play most (if not all) of 2010. He should end his season in Arizona, and that sets him up to be a callup sometime in 2011.
3. R OF Cesar Puello R/R 4/1/91 (R Kingsport .296/.373/.423/.796, 58 for 196, 37 runs, 10 2b, 5 HR, 23 RBI, 10/51 BB/K, 15/20 SBs)
The Mets signed three IFAs in 2007, Wilmer Flores, Jefry Marte, and this guy, Cesar Puello. The other two were rushed further then Puello, who's been handled carefully, with good results. Puello played the 08 and 09 seasons in short season rookie ball, 08 in the GCL, and 09 in Kingsport.
Puello spent the 2009 season in short season rookie ball, playing for the Kingsport Mets of the Appalachian League, where he hit .296/.373/.423/.796 in 196 ABs. As he did in 2008, Puello got off to a slow start in 2009, hitting just .265/.324/.294/.618 in 34 June ABs, before coming on strong. From July 1st to the end of the season, Puello hit extremely well, .302/.383/.451/.833, though he was hit by 12 pitches in that span, inflating his OBP by 44 points.
Much of Puello's offensive game is still projection, as he's a) just 18, and b) has yet to cross the 200 AB barrier. He does have some pop in his bat, as evidenced by the .423 SLG and 127 IsoP, but he needs to refine his strike zone discipline in order to maximize his tools (again, he's just 18, so he has time to do that). Unlike most hitters, Puello can recognize offspeed/breaking pitches, which should help him transition to fullseason this season. Puello has good speed, as evidenced by his 15/20 success rate in steals in 2009. Puello also has a strong arm, so much so that the Mets used him exclusively in RF in 2009, and will do so again in 2010. He has very good range, owing to his speed.
THE FUTURE: Puello should open 2010 in Savannah, and he most likely will spend the whole season there (at age 19), but it wouldn't be a shock to see him end in St. Lucie. Conservative promotions from there should have him spend his age 20 season there, age 21 in Binghamton, age 22 in Buffalo, and then age 23 breaking into the majors (2014).
4. A+ OF Brahiam Maldonado R/R 9/18/85 (A+ St. Lucie .273/.348/.466/.813, 112 for 410, 62 runs, 19 2b, 3 3b, 18 HR, 73 RBI, 43/126 BB/K, 13/17 SBs)
The Mets drafted Brahiam Maldonado in the 10th round of the 2004 draft out of St. Francis High in Puerto Rico. After being drafted, Maldonado spent two seasons in the GCL, then Kingsport (2006), Savannah (2007), then the last two seasons in St. Lucie (08 and 09).
Maldonado enjoyed a second half rebirth of his prospect status, after for all the world looking like a total flameout. After hitting a pathetic .226/.277/.377/.653 over the first two months of the season, Maldonado EXPLODED, blistering the FSL to the tune of a .299/.384/.515/.900
Maldonado still strikes out at an extreme clip, over .300 again this season, and it will be this flaw which permanently puts the kabosh on his resurrected prospect status in 2010. He's got good speed and a good enough arm to play the corner outfield spots, but neither is anythign special.
THE FUTURE: Maldonado will definitely open 2010 with the BMets, and as I said, his fatal K rate will serve to permanently destroy his resurrected prospect status, unless, of course, he can bring it under control somehow. If he does, he should be poised to make his major league debut sometime in late 2011 or 2012.
5. A+/AA OF Carlos Guzman L/R 5/24/86 (A+ St. Lucie .290/.347/.453/.800, 137 for 472, 59 runs, 28 2b, 2 3b, 15 HR, 64 RBI, 39/95 BB/K, 6/11 SBs, AA Binghamton .130/.200/.261/.461, 3 for 23, 2 runs, HR, 3 RBI, 1/7 BB/K)
Total 2009 Stats: .283/.340/.444/.785, 140 for 495, 61 runs, 28 2b, 2 3b, 16 HR, 67 RBI, 40/102 BB/K, 6/11 SBs
Guzman was signed as a UDFA out of Brookdale Community College in 2006, and since has been mostly unheralded, first in the GCL in 2007, then Savannah (08), before exploding onto the scene in 2009 with a terrific first two months in St. Lucie.
Guzman launched himself onto prospect lists with a vengence in 2009, setting career highs in every offensive category, all while playing a good corner outfield. Guzman started off hot in St. Lucie, hitting .300/.354/.498 through the first two months of the season before falling into a deep slump (.220/.282/.370) over his next two months, before having the best month of his season in August, a blistering .396/.446/.523 which earned him a 23 AB cameo in Binghamton, where he should play all of 2010.
Guzman is a fastball hitter who has trouble with advanced breaking pitches, which should hamper him in 2010, unless he improves. He began switch hitting this year, and that is a definite work in progress, as he hit just .202/.305/.219/.525 from the right side of the plate. Guzman is a decent runner and athlete, and also has decent range, but he has a good arm, his best asset on the defensive side of the ball.
THE FUTURE: Guzman, as we said, will open 2010 in Binghamton, where his fringy prospect status will be put to the test by advanced offspeed pitches. If he passes the test, he will face another in 2011 at the AAA level, and if he passes that, he will make his MLB debut in 2012, likely as a power bat off the bench.
6. A/A+ OF Sean Ratliff L/L 2/24/87 (A Savannah .265/.312/.451/.763, 124 for 468, 64 runs, 28 2b, 7 3b, 15 HR, 68 RBI, 31/131 BB/K, 11/17 SBs, A+ St. Lucie .286/.286/.357/.643, 8 for 28, 3 runs, 2 2b, 6 RBI, 10 Ks)
Total 2009 Stats: .266/.311/.446/.756, 132 for 496, 67 runs, 30 2b, 7 3b, 15 HR, 74 RBI, 11/17 SBs, 31/141 BB/K, .284 K rate, .2199 BB/K ratio
Ratliff was drafted in the 4th round of the 2008 draft out of Stanford, and spent his rookie season in Brooklyn, before opening 2009 in fullseason ball, with Savannah.
Ratliff spent the vast majority of the season in Savannah where he had bursts of great production (.346 thru his first 26 games, .552 in the final week of April, .321 in May), but he was also ICE cold for long stretches of time, ending up with pedestrian numbers at age 22 in the Sally League.
Ratliff needs to cut down on his strikeouts, and also find a more consistent approach, as his wild fluxuations in production last season show. Ratliff profiles best as a left fielder, since he doesn't have the range for center (even though he spent most of 2009 playing center for Savannah), or the arm for right. He's got average speed at best, and the 11 steals he had last season should be close to his max output.
THE FUTURE: Ratliff should open 2010 in St. Lucie, and a level per season after means he should be in position to make the majors sometime in 2012. However, his high K totals may serve to derail him, much as Brahiam Maldonado.
7. 7. A- Nick Santomauro L/R 6/13/88 (A- Brooklyn .241/.368/.441/.809, 35 for 145, 18 runs, 5 2b, 3 3b, 6 HR, 21 RBI, 28/38 BB/K, 1/5 SBs)
Santomauro was drafted in the 10th round of the 2009 draft out of Dartmouth, and spent his rookie season in Brooklyn, where he didn't hit for much of an average, but showed very good periphials (127 IsoP, 200 IsoD).
Santomauro has good natural power (as his 200 IsoP indicates), but he does need to work on hiting for average. His eye is good (127 IsoD), and that should help him when he makes the jump to high A in 2010. He has good speed, but isn't a basestealer, he's more of a 1st to 3rd on a single type runner. His speed helps him cover ground in the outfield, but he sometimes takes bad routes to the ball. Santomauro, like Ratliff, is best profiled as a left fielder.
THE FUTURE: Santomauro should open 2010 in St. Lucie, and I expect him to have a breakout much like Kirk Nieuwenhuis did (although Kirk is definitely much more toolsy then Nick). A level per season after that puts him in the majors sometime in 2012/2013.
8. 8. A- Luis Rivera R/R 10/12/86 (A- Brooklyn .297/.402/.441/.844, 66 for 222, 38 runs, 14 2b, 3 3b, 4 HR, 34 RBI, 37/53 BB/K, 13/16 SBs)
9. R Darrell Ceciliani 6/22/90 (R Kingsport .234/.313/.310/.623, 37 for 158, 29 runs, 6 2b, 2 HR, 13 RBI, 13/31 BB/K, 14/16 SBs)
Ceciliani was taken in the 4th round of the 2009 draft out of Columbia Basin College in Washington State, and after signing, was sent to Kingsport where he showed flashes of the type of player he could be in the future, hitting .303/.361/.447/.809 in 76 July ABs, with 5 2b, 2 HR and 8 steals. However, outside of that one month, he was abysmal.
Ceciliani is a slap hitter who uses his speed to his advantage, he won't hit for much power, but he will be a threat on the bases. Ceciliani also uses his speed to be a plus defender in center field, and he's got the arm for the position, too. Ceciliani's best comp would be Juan Pierre.
THE FUTURE: Ceciliani should open 2010 with Savannah, and ascending a level per season after that puts him on track for a debut sometime in 2013.
10. R Chase Greene R/R 4/22/90 (R GCL .286/.361/.397/.758, 18 for 63, 7 2b, 5 RBI, 7/10 BB/K, 2 SBs)
The Mets took Greene in the 16th round out of West Boca Raton High in Florida, and assigned him to the GCL, where he performed very well. Greene projects much as Ceciliani does, a speedy slap hitter who profiles best as a leadoff hitter and centerfielder with plus range.
THE FUTURE: Greene should open 2010 with either Savannah, or Kingsport, and depending on which it is, that will determine when he's in a position to make his MLB debut. It will either be in 2013 or 2014.
Welcome to the 2010 MetsProspectHub System Audit. This year, I consulted 3 other people to get their opinions and feelings. Of course, David, my cowriter (well, you know) and co-founder of MPH, and then a couple of very good friends, Joey DeMayo of NYbaseballdigest.com, and Daniel Wexler (http://www.nleastchatter.com/realdirtymets/)
2009 was a total mess...on the major league side. Mess really doesn't even begin to cover what happened to the New York Mets in 2009, but that's in the rearview mirror. On the minor league side, however, 2009 was one of the best seasons in a long time, and 2010 promises to be significantly more exciting. For the first time in what seems like forever, the Mets did not strip off any prospects during 2009, leaving a nice stable of VERY exciting prospects. Talking to Joe, Dan and David, none of them can remember the last time the Mets had this many prospects across the top 3 levels. Below are writeups on most of them.

OUTFIELDERS
-------------
1. AAA/MLB OF Fernando Martinez L/R 10/10/88 (AAA Buffalo .290/.337/.540/.877, 51 for 176, 24 runs, 16 2b, 2 3b, 8 HR, 28 RBI, 11/33 BB/K, 2/3 SBs, MLB New York .176/.242/.275/.517, 16 for 91, 11 runs, 6 2b, HR, 8 RBI, 5/14 BB/K, 2 SBs)
Total 2009 Stats: .251/.304/.449/.754, 67 for 267, 35 runs, 22 2b, 2 3b, 9 HR, 36 RBI, 4/5 SBs, 16/47 BB/K
The Mets signed Fernando out of the Dominican in the IFA signing period of 2005 for 1.3 million, and since then, he's made a slow trek through the system (due to injuries), but last season cracked through to the major leagues. He started off in Hagerstown in 2006, spent two seasons (2007, 2008) in Binghamton, and last season played in Buffalo, and had a 91 AB stint with the Mets.
Fernando got hurt again in 2009, but managed to make his major league debut after having a torrid month of May in Buffalo (.337/.378/.663/1.041, 31 for 92, 17 runs, 7 2b, 3b, 7 HR, 20 RBI, 6/12 BB/K). He injured himself trying to make a diving catch in Milwaukee, playing CF, and did not appear in a game again.
Fernando still has a very high ceiling, despite being around forever, he will play all of 2010 at the age of 22, which is right on target for AAA, which is where he should play the entire season. Fernando still has considerable power projection left to all fields, as he displays during BP. As we saw in 2009, Fernando is faster then we we led to believe, and he can definitely play center field, something we were told he couldn't do (ok, ok, one epic fall/slide aside), he was solid filling in for Beltran. He should also steal between 15 and 25 bases in a season, definitely not a slouch. He still projects as an above average offensive player, no matter what OF spot he ultimately ends up playing.
THE FUTURE: Fernando made his MB debut in 2009, but should open 2010 in Buffalo, and hopefully will spnd all of the upcoming season there, before being permanently inserted into the lineup in 2011.
2. A+/AA OF Kirk Nieuwenhuis L/R 8/7/87 (A+ St. Lucie .274/.357/.467/.824, 132 for 482, 91 runs, 35 2b, 5 3b, 16 HR, 71 RBI, 53/118 BB/K, 16/20 SBs, AA Binghamton .406/.472/.656/1.128, 13 for 32, 8 runs, 3 2b, 3b, HR, 2 RBI, 4/9 BB/K, 1/2 SBs)
Total 2009 Stats: .282/.364/.479/.843, 145 for 514, 99 runs, 38 2b, 6 3b, 17 HR, 73 RBI, 57/127 BB/K, 17/22 SBs, .247 K rate, .4488 BB/K ratio
The Mets drafted Nieuwenhuis out of Azusa Pacific University in the 3rd round of the 2008 draft, and he spent his rookie season with Brooklyn, before being bumped up to St. Lucie for 2009, where he got off to an uneven beginning.
Nieuwenhuis had one of the hottest stretches in all of minor league ball during the second half of 2009. Between July 8th and September 2nd, Kirk hit a blistering .340/.411/.602/1.013 (70 for 206, 47 runs, 20 2b, 5 3b, 8 HR, 40 RBI, 24/48 BB/K). He ended his season in Binghamton where he didn't slow down, hitting .406/.472/.656/1.128 in 32 ABs.
Nieuwenhuis, as we saw in 2009, hits tons of XBH. Of his 145 hits, 61 of them (42.06%) were for extra bases (38 2b, 6 3b, 17 HR). He hits the ball well to all fields, and is a gap to gap hitter , but he struggles against LHP (just .233/.297/.346/.642 in 2009 in St. Lucie), and he also Ks a ton (127 Ks in 514 ABs), but provides good production from the outfield to make up for it, and is a possible 20-20 or 25-25-25 player. Nieuwenhuis has a good arm and probably profiles best as a right fielder, but for at least 2010, he will play center.
THE FUTURE: Kirk had a 32 AB cameo in Binghamton at the tail end of 2009, and this is where he will play most (if not all) of 2010. He should end his season in Arizona, and that sets him up to be a callup sometime in 2011.
3. R OF Cesar Puello R/R 4/1/91 (R Kingsport .296/.373/.423/.796, 58 for 196, 37 runs, 10 2b, 5 HR, 23 RBI, 10/51 BB/K, 15/20 SBs)
The Mets signed three IFAs in 2007, Wilmer Flores, Jefry Marte, and this guy, Cesar Puello. The other two were rushed further then Puello, who's been handled carefully, with good results. Puello played the 08 and 09 seasons in short season rookie ball, 08 in the GCL, and 09 in Kingsport.

4. A+ OF Brahiam Maldonado R/R 9/18/85 (A+ St. Lucie .273/.348/.466/.813, 112 for 410, 62 runs, 19 2b, 3 3b, 18 HR, 73 RBI, 43/126 BB/K, 13/17 SBs)
The Mets drafted Brahiam Maldonado in the 10th round of the 2004 draft out of St. Francis High in Puerto Rico. After being drafted, Maldonado spent two seasons in the GCL, then Kingsport (2006), Savannah (2007), then the last two seasons in St. Lucie (08 and 09).

5. A+/AA OF Carlos Guzman L/R 5/24/86 (A+ St. Lucie .290/.347/.453/.800, 137 for 472, 59 runs, 28 2b, 2 3b, 15 HR, 64 RBI, 39/95 BB/K, 6/11 SBs, AA Binghamton .130/.200/.261/.461, 3 for 23, 2 runs, HR, 3 RBI, 1/7 BB/K)
Total 2009 Stats: .283/.340/.444/.785, 140 for 495, 61 runs, 28 2b, 2 3b, 16 HR, 67 RBI, 40/102 BB/K, 6/11 SBs

6. A/A+ OF Sean Ratliff L/L 2/24/87 (A Savannah .265/.312/.451/.763, 124 for 468, 64 runs, 28 2b, 7 3b, 15 HR, 68 RBI, 31/131 BB/K, 11/17 SBs, A+ St. Lucie .286/.286/.357/.643, 8 for 28, 3 runs, 2 2b, 6 RBI, 10 Ks)

Santomauro was drafted in the 10th round of the 2009 draft out of Dartmouth, and spent his rookie season in Brooklyn, where he didn't hit for much of an average, but showed very good periphials (127 IsoP, 200 IsoD).

9. R Darrell Ceciliani 6/22/90 (R Kingsport .234/.313/.310/.623, 37 for 158, 29 runs, 6 2b, 2 HR, 13 RBI, 13/31 BB/K, 14/16 SBs)
Ceciliani was taken in the 4th round of the 2009 draft out of Columbia Basin College in Washington State, and after signing, was sent to Kingsport where he showed flashes of the type of player he could be in the future, hitting .303/.361/.447/.809 in 76 July ABs, with 5 2b, 2 HR and 8 steals. However, outside of that one month, he was abysmal.
Ceciliani is a slap hitter who uses his speed to his advantage, he won't hit for much power, but he will be a threat on the bases. Ceciliani also uses his speed to be a plus defender in center field, and he's got the arm for the position, too. Ceciliani's best comp would be Juan Pierre.
THE FUTURE: Ceciliani should open 2010 with Savannah, and ascending a level per season after that puts him on track for a debut sometime in 2013.
10. R Chase Greene R/R 4/22/90 (R GCL .286/.361/.397/.758, 18 for 63, 7 2b, 5 RBI, 7/10 BB/K, 2 SBs)
The Mets took Greene in the 16th round out of West Boca Raton High in Florida, and assigned him to the GCL, where he performed very well. Greene projects much as Ceciliani does, a speedy slap hitter who profiles best as a leadoff hitter and centerfielder with plus range.
THE FUTURE: Greene should open 2010 with either Savannah, or Kingsport, and depending on which it is, that will determine when he's in a position to make his MLB debut. It will either be in 2013 or 2014.

Michael Antonini had one of his finest outings of the season, scattering 3 hits and a run over 6 innings, but Connor Robertson coughed up the lead by allowing 3 in the 7th, without recording an out, though it was officially Jose De La Torre who blew the save by allowing all of Robertson's runs to score.
The Mets offense had 9 hits and 2 walks in the 7 inning contest, while going just 1 for 8 with RISP, and leaving 6 on base. Ruben Tejada (2), Ike Davis (2), and Shawn Bowman (2) had multi hit games, while Caleb Stewart (0 for 3, K, .197), DJ Wabick (0 for 3, .283), and Jose Coronado (0 for 2, BB, .264) took 0-fers.
Edit (The Man): Time to stop the games, Ike Davis is a monster and needs his props. He hit his 17th homerun of the year tonight (combined A+/AA) and has an OPS over .900 during his time in AA. He's currently performing better than the other 4 1B (Alonso, Smoak, Cooper, Wallace) taken ahead of him in last years draft. So much for being a bust and hating on college picks.

EL AA: Binghamton 3/9/1, Reading 4/5/0, Game 1
Michael Antonini had one of his finest outings of the season, scattering 3 hits and a run over 6 innings, but Connor Robertson coughed up the lead by allowing 3 in the 7th, without recording an out, though it was officially Jose De La Torre who blew the save by allowing all of Robertson's runs to score.
The Mets offense had 9 hits and 2 walks in the 7 inning contest, while going just 1 for 8 with RISP, and leaving 6 on base. Ruben Tejada (2), Ike Davis (2), and Shawn Bowman (2) had multi hit games, while Caleb Stewart (0 for 3, K, .197), DJ Wabick (0 for 3, .283), and Jose Coronado (0 for 2, BB, .264) took 0-fers.
Edit (The Man): Time to stop the games, Ike Davis is a monster and needs his props. He hit his 17th homerun of the year tonight (combined A+/AA) and has an OPS over .900 during his time in AA. He's currently performing better than the other 4 1B (Alonso, Smoak, Cooper, Wallace) taken ahead of him in last years draft. So much for being a bust and hating on college picks.

Dylan Owen bounced back from a miserable outing his last time out (3 ip, 6 h, 6 er, 4/2 bb/k) with a very good outing tonight, giving up just a run on 5 hits in 6.2 innings for his 4th EL victory. Since coming back to Binghamton from a 3 start demotion to St. Lucie, Owen has been brilliant, with a 3.76 era over 9 starts, and a 4-2 record. Removing his start 2 turns ago, the numbers are even better, with a 2.85 era in 8 starts, and a 4-1 record, with an average of 6 innings per start. Roy Merritt came in with the bases loaded and 2 out, and escaped that jam, and then Connor Robertson came in with the bases loaded and 1 out, allowing 1 of those runs to score, but nothing further, picking up his 9th save of the season.
The Mets offense gathered 11 hits and drew 6 walks, while going 5 for 16 (.313) with RISP, leaving 12 on base. The top two in the order (Emmanuel Garcia, Ruben Tejada) both were 0 for 5, Tejada added a K to his 0-fer. Garcia's hitting .249, Tejada, .282.

Dylan Owen bounced back from a miserable outing his last time out (3 ip, 6 h, 6 er, 4/2 bb/k) with a very good outing tonight, giving up just a run on 5 hits in 6.2 innings for his 4th EL victory. Since coming back to Binghamton from a 3 start demotion to St. Lucie, Owen has been brilliant, with a 3.76 era over 9 starts, and a 4-2 record.

Roy Merritt came in with the bases loaded and 2 out, and escaped that jam, and then Connor Robertson came in with the bases loaded and 1 out, allowing 1 of those runs to score, but nothing further, picking up his 9th save of the season.
The Mets offense gathered 11 hits and drew 6 walks, while going 5 for 16 (.313) with RISP, leaving 12 on base.

For most of this game, the Mets were on cruise control, building themselves a 7-3 lead after 5 innings, and 11-3 after a 4 run 7th, but in horrifying fashion, Nick Waechter and Manuel Olivares combined to allow 8 runs in the top of the 9th, blowing the game for Scott Moviel. Stephen Clyne came in with the bases loaded and 2 down, and proceeded to allow all 3 runs to score, but escaped the inning with a tie. Brahiam Maldonado's 4 hit in the bottom of the 9th completed the narrow avoidance of disaster. Moviel started, and pitched a meh game, giving up 5 hits and 3 runs (2 earned) with 2 walks and 3 HBP. Clyne picked up the win, his 2nd in the FSL.
The Mets offense exploded today, registering one of the highest hit totals of the season (24), and alwo drawing a pair of walks while going 10 for 18 (.556) with RISP, thought they did leave a small army (15) on base. Every starter except Stefan Welch (0 for 6, run, K, .323) had a multi hit game, four players had 4 hit games.

EL AA: Binghamton 2/8/0, Akron 3/6/1
Brad Holt had massive control issues tonight, walking 6 in 6 innings while also allowing 3 hits, leading to 3 runs against him, resulting in his 5th EL loss. Emary Frederick, Roy Merritt and Connor Robertson each followed with a scoreless inning of relief, allowing the Mets to work themselves back into the game with a 2 run 7th, but they could not push across the tying run.
The Mets gathered 8 hits and drew 3 walks, but were just 1 for 9 (.111) with RISP, and left 9 on base. Lucas Duda (3), and Mark Kiger (2) had multi hit games, while Emmanuel Garcia (0 for 3, RBI, BB, 3 Ks, .254), Ike Davis (0 for 4, 2 Ks, .301), Caleb Stewart (0 for 4, 3 Ks, .202), and Jon Malo (0 for 3, .249) took 0-fers.

FSL A+: St. Lucie 12/24/2, Lakeland 11/14/2
For most of this game, the Mets were on cruise control, building themselves a 7-3 lead after 5 innings, and 11-3 after a 4 run 7th, but in horrifying fashion, Nick Waechter and Manuel Olivares combined to allow 8 runs in the top of the 9th, blowing the game for Scott Moviel. Stephen Clyne came in with the bases loaded and 2 down, and proceeded to allow all 3 runs to score, but escaped the inning with a tie. Brahiam Maldonado's 4 hit in the bottom of the 9th completed the narrow avoidance of disaster. Moviel started, and pitched a meh game, giving up 5 hits and 3 runs (2 earned) with 2 walks and 3 HBP. Clyne picked up the win, his 2nd in the FSL.
The Mets offense exploded today, registering one of the highest hit totals of the season (24), and alwo drawing a pair of walks while going 10 for 18 (.556) with RISP, thought they did leave a small army (15) on base. Every starter except Stefan Welch (0 for 6, run, K, .323) had a multi hit game, four players had 4 hit games.

Robert Carson, coming off two horrific starts (4.2 innings, 21.21 era), had a good one today in a rain shortened game, going the distance, giving up just a run on 6 hits, generating 11 groundball outs.
The Gnats had 4 hits and a walk, while going 1 for 6 with RISP, but they put up 3 runs, enough on this day for the win. Raul Reyes (1 for 3, run, 2b, 2 RBI, .248), Josh Satin (1 for 2, 2b, .299), Jose Jimenez (1 for 2, run, .107) and Luis Alen (1 for 2, run, 2b, .152) had the hits for the Gnats, everyone else took 0-fers.

Brooklyn scored single runs in innings 4 thru 8, erasing a 3-1 deficit after 4, and earning their 28th win of the season (28-16, 3 up on the Yankees for first). The Cyclones had 8 hits and drew 3 walks, while going 4 for 12 with RISP, and leaving 6 on base.

APPY R: Kingsport 6/9/1, Greeneville 4/9/2
Jhonathan Torres' 5th Appy start was arguably his "best", as he gave up a run on 5 hits in 4.1 innings, with 7 Ks. Samuel Taveras blew the save by giving up 3 runs in the 8th, and Travis Babin stranded one of Taveras' runners, keeping it a 1 run deficit at 4-3, and allowing the Mets time to regroup and rally for 3 in the 9th for the win. The 4 runs Kingsport gave up is the lowest run total against them since July 20th, when they gave up a run in an eventual 4-1 victory.
The Mets had 9 hits and drew 7 walks, while going 3 for 12 with RISP, and leaving 11 on base. RJ Harris (2) and Gered Mochizuki (2) had multi hit games, while Cesar Puello (0 for 5, 3 Ks, .280) and Tyler Howe (0 for 1, run, RBI, 3 BBs, K, .250) took 0-fers.

7/15 Minor League Report! Guzman, WELCH, Pena, STRONACH, Familia!
St. Lucie 10, Palm Beach 0
Tim Stronach had the game of his life this afternoon, taking a perfect game into the 8th, and a no hitter into the 9th, losing the perfecto on a HBP in the 8th, and losing the no hitter with 1 down in the 9th on a triple. Stronach only struck out 1, getting his other 24 outs via groundball (14), and flyball (10). Stronach is a fringy prospect at 23 1/2 years old, but that doesn't take away from his masterpiece today. He lowered his ERA by 2.9 runs with his effort, and earned his first win of the season.
The Mets scored early and often, with 4 in the first getting them off on the right foot. They hammered out 15 hits and drew 3 walks, while going 6 for 12 with RISP, leaving 7 on base. The 456 hitters (Guzman, Welch, Pena) each had a homer and 3 hits in the game, every regular had at least one hit.

Familia allowed just a run on 1 hit and a walk in 6 innings. Rhiner Cruz pitched around 2 hits in the 9th for save #17. The Gnats were just 1 for 7 (.149) with RISP, and left 6 men on base.

It was another bullpen by committee day for the BMets, with 4 relievers pitching the game, the win went to Michael Antonini (3 innings, 1 hit), the save to 30 year old Jim Warden (why exactly is he in Binghamton...or for that matter, in the organization?)
The offense for the Mets had 9 hits, but more importantly, 12 walks, en route to 6 runs. However, they were an atrocious 2 for 13 (.154) with RISP, and left 14 men on base. Ruben Tejada and Jon Malo had multi hit games, while Jose Coronado (0 for 3, 2 BBs, .252), and Salvador Paniagua (0 for 3, 2 Ks, .213) took 0-fers.

Jeff Kaplan was victimized by his defense a ton today, as 3 errors (2 on Pellot, 1 on Eigsti) led to 4 UER off him, denying him a complete game. Manuel Alvarez picked up his 7th save, despite allowing one of Kaplan's IHR to score.
The Mets offense had 9 hits and 3 walks, and were a good 3 for 8 (.375) with RISP, despite leaving 6 on base, and having 2 runners thrown out stealing. Carlos Guzman and Brahiam Maldonado had much needed breakout multi hit games, while Greg Veloz (0 for 4, K, .247), Hector Pellot (0 for 1, BB, .272), and Jake Eigsti (0 for 3, K, .220) took 0-fers.

Elvin Ramirez had yet another poor outing today, giving up 3 runs on 8 hits in 3.1 innings to take the loss, his 7th of the season. His June ERA stands at 5.64, and he's 0-4 in the month. Over his last 6 starts, dating back to May 30th, he's given up 18 earned runs in 27.1 innings, a 5.93 era. Phillips Orta and Manuel Olivares followed with equally poor outings, putting the game well out of reach.
The Gnats offense had 10 hits on the game, but were a pathetic 0 for 8 with RISP and left 9 on base. Rafael Fernandez, Wilmer Flores, Jefry Marte and Stefan Welch (aka the important offensive people on the team) all had multi hit games, while Imbewer Alvarez (0 for 2, .125), Raul Reyes (0 for 5, K, .250), Sean Ratliff (0 for 4, 2 Ks, .286), took 0-fers.

The KMets pitching and defense has been absolutely putrid to start the season, they surrendered 10 more runs tonight, and have now given up a staggering 59 runs in their first 6 games, 12 of then unearned. It was Guillaume LeDuc tonight, giving up 7 runs (6 earned) in 4.1 innings to take his first loss. Julio Bello allowed 3 runs in 3.2 innings for good measure.
The Mets offense had 11 hits and 2 walks, but were just 3 for 15 with RISP and left 12 on base.

The BMets showed tremendous fight today, repeatedly coming back from multi run deficits, but they couldn't seal the deal, thanks in large part to an abysmal relief outing from Eric Brown, who gave up 4 runs of his own (and allowed 2 IHR to score). Tobi Stoner started and was very effective, even if wild, allowing 3 runs on 5 hits and 4 walks in 6.1 innings. Roy Merritt allowed a run on a hit in 0.1 innings, before Eric Brown's awful outing began. Stephen Clyne pitched a perfect top of the 9th.
The Mets offense had 11 hits and drew 2 walks, and were a very good 5 for 10 with RISP, leaving just 3 men on base. Emmanuel Garcia, Josh Thole, DJ Wabick and Ruben Tejada had multi hit games for the Mets, while Lucas Duda and Shawn Bowman (hitting 45 in the order) were a combined 0 for 7 with 3 Ks.

The BMets showed tremendous fight today, repeatedly coming back from multi run deficits, but they couldn't seal the deal, thanks in large part to an abysmal relief outing from Eric Brown, who gave up 4 runs of his own (and allowed 2 IHR to score). Tobi Stoner started and was very effective, even if wild, allowing 3 runs on 5 hits and 4 walks in 6.1 innings. Roy Merritt allowed a run on a hit in 0.1 innings, before Eric Brown's awful outing began. Stephen Clyne pitched a perfect top of the 9th.
The Mets offense had 11 hits and drew 2 walks, and were a very good 5 for 10 with RISP, leaving just 3 men on base. Emmanuel Garcia, Josh Thole, DJ Wabick and Ruben Tejada had multi hit games for the Mets, while Lucas Duda and Shawn Bowman (hitting 45 in the order) were a combined 0 for 7 with 3 Ks.

Despite a stellar relief outing from Nick Carr (4 ip, 3 h, er), he was tagged with the loss, giving up the tiebreaking run in the 8th inning, after Carlos Guzman capped off his great day with a game tying RBI double in the 7th.

St. Lucie 9-11-4, Fort Myers 11-17-4 in 13 innings
This was an ugly back and forth game, with a total of 20 runs on 28 hits, the ugly part is that half the combined runs (10 for you mathamatically challenged people ;)) were unearned, due to the 8 combined errors. For the Mets, Brahiam Maldonado (3), Matt Bouchard (5), Hector Pellot (3), and Reese Havens (13) committed errors.
Eric Niesen started this game a long time ago, and had his first awful outing of the season, giving up 6 runs (4 earned) on 10 hits. Emary Frederick blew a 9th inning 8-6 lead to send the game into extra innings. It looked like the Mets would lose in the 10th when Jose De La Torre gave up a run, but the Mets rallied in the bottom half of the inning to tie it. Manuel Alvarez took the loss for the Mets, giving up 2 runs (unearned, due to Havens' error) on 2 hits in the top of the 13th.
The Mets had 11 hits, 5 walks and had 4 baserunners via error, and were 5 for 18 (.278) with RISP, leaving 10 men on base. Hector Pellot (0 for 7, 2 runs, K, .261), Kirk Nieuwenhuis (0 for 7, run, 2 Ks, .241), and Matt Bouchard (0 for 3, run, BB, K, .213) took 0-fers, while Ike Davis and Carlos Guzman had multi hit games.
