| 2019-12-09 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Where will a likely Rule 5 draft selection fall in this Org top 20?
(Mark from Maryland) | So if it's just a hard-throwing reliever dude that's mostly ready probably in the back of the Top 20, if they took like best prospect available and grabbed like Shervyen Newton or Esteury Ruiz, they might slot around Antuna and Romero, (Washington Nationals Top 10 Chat) |
| 2019-05-29 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Please give me 5 A-Ball prospects to target in my dynasty league, not named Wander.
(Yankee from Charlotte ) | Shervyen Newton, Geraldo Perdomo, D'Shawn Knowles, Alek Thomas, Antoni Flores (I went with A-Ball or lower, hope that's alright) (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2019-04-17 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Happy Hump Day! I’m seeking 5 of your best low-level bets to become stars... The Ronny Mauricio’s of the world. Who you got?
(Roger from Baltimore) | Speaking of Mauricio, we're always looking for our next fix, huh? Just to throw some names out there, I like Jhon Torres, George Valera, D'Shawn Knowles, Shervyen Newton, and Sherten Apostel. I don't know if they're my "best bets" but definitely guys I'm following. If you want a fun name to track, try Darling Florentino. He's a baby and in full-season, so struggling but a toolsy 3B with flashes of power and hit. Plus his name is Darling Florentino. (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2018-11-30 13:00:00 (link to chat) | So sounds like the Mets now have 2 top 100 guys. Who are the guys that can realistically jump into the top 100 with good years? Mauricio, Szapucki, Vientos, Peterson?
(Leroy from NY) | Mauricio is probably your best bet, and he was long-listed this year. Szapucki if the stuff comes back will get the Luzardo treatment I suppose (although he is older and always had higher reliever risk). I'm not a huge fan of Vientos, but sure he has a shot. Peterson would have to do a Logan Allen type thing. I'd throw in Shervyen Newton as well. If you want a really, really deep sleeper for it, maybe Junior Santos. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
| 2018-11-02 13:00:00 (link to chat) | What are the chances that Shervyen Newton stays at SS?
(Jose from MN) | Better than you'd think by looking at him, but not great. Maybe 1 in 3. Could be plus at third. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
| 2018-08-29 19:00:00 (link to chat) | Read your quip on Julio Rodriguez of the M's. You have a top 125 ceiling next year. I have seen him ranked elsewhere in top 90 right now. Do I drop Miguel Vargas (got him from you), Shervyen Newton, Canario (your BFF) for Julio Rodriguez?
(Eric from Seattle) | You might have to make that spot your "Helium Flex Spot". I'd drop Vargas for Julio for now, but prepared to make a move later and drop Julio if need be. With the DSL season over, his value will remain static for the time being. (Eddy Almaguer) |
| 2018-07-13 15:00:00 (link to chat) | Depressed Met fan here- though I guess that's redundant. Anybody on the farm not named Alonso, Gimenez, or Kelenic who I could get excited about? The other preseason top 10 guys like Dunn, Peterson, Lindsay seem like Role 45-50 guys at best.
(Chad from DC) | I will still answer your question though, Shervyen Newton, Ronny Maurcio, Stanley Consuegra and Junior Santos would be the dudes I'd try to get excited about. We'll have deeper midseason org thoughts over at BP Mets next week though. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
| 2018-06-22 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Ronnie Mauricio, Stanley Consuerga, Mark Vientos, Luis Sanchez, Shervyen Newton all playing on short season teams. Safe to say, there is some hope for this system when you look at the lower levels? Any thoughts on these guys and other names I might be missing (I guess add Adrian Hernandez in the DSL, hopefully not for long) at the lower levels that you like?
(Jon from Westchester) | Junior Santos in the DSL is another name I've gotten buzz on. Newton and Consuegra are the most interesting to me past the seven-figure guys, and you could make a case Newton is a better prospect than Mauricio right now. The thing is most teams have interesting teenagers in the lower levels, and the Mets have in the recent past as well. Better athletes this time around at least. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
