There is some feeling of right-hand pitching prospects within the Metropolitan Organization Jonah Tong Mike Puma of the New York Post reported that he could make his debut at the start of the 2025 season before the end of the 2025 season. Tong only made his debut with Triple-A Syracuse on August 16 and was not expected to be “considered for Major League Baseball roster this year,” Puma wrote, but “the position has changed in recent days.”
The transition was due to the Mets’ rotation needs and the continued excellence of Tonne’s performance in his third professional season. Tong was New York’s seventh round pick in the 2022 draft, making it the prospect of the top 100 – Baseball America ranked 42nd in the mid-season top 100, while MLB Pipeline was in their 44th. It’s easy to understand why, because Tong’s ridiculous ERA in 2025 was ridiculous 1.43 ERA and 40.5% strikeout rate and 40.5% strikeout rate and 40.5% 3-point shooting rate and Triple-A level. These included 11 2/3 no divisions, during his brief time in Syracuse.
Naturally, bringing the 22-year-old to the show in a relatively quick way has some risks, while the soup’s 10.6% walk rate stands out, a potential weakness that can be exploited by major league batsmen. That said, the unusual delivery of soup can also confuse some batsmen, not to mention the amount of rest he has to do with his speed up (if relatively few speeds (in the 91-94 mph range).
Of course, promotion soup doesn’t necessarily mean he will be a Grand Slam for the rest of the season, as the Mets may use him to the field in a tight schedule. New York entered six of 26 games in 27 days, and September 4 was the only day off during the extension. This puts more pressure on the spin, which hasn’t provided much length or result lately, and the Mets have turned to another rookie Nolan McLean Take Frankie Montas‘Rotating location early this month.
At this point Brandon Sproat Before the Mets season ended, everyone was on the mound. This need to help from the farm (besides any club’s natural privacy for the top prospects of mobile) is probably why Amazins hasn’t made much progress in the deal talks they talk to the twins about. Jhoan Duran.
The Mets are loosely linked to Duran’s market by the trade deadline, and Jon Heyman of the New York Post reported that the Mets are reluctant to relocate McLean, Tom, Tom, Spratt, Jet Williamsor Carson Benge. The quintet is the highest prospect of consensus in the New York farm system, with baseball America having all five players on the league-wide top 100 prospects. Minnesota is known to be looking for at least 100 top 100 types for Duran’s service and found such an offer from another NL East Club for the Phillies Eduardo Tait and Mick Alber.
Duran looks great in Philadelphia, while the Mets’ deadline acquisition has caused chaos. Taylor Rogers and Gregory Soto Have been doing well since coming to the Queen, but Ryan Helsley Struggle. The shaky pitching on the bullpen and rotation resulted in the Mets’ 7-13 record in August, while the Phillies have already taken the lead in the six-game lead in New York in Eastern New York.
In other metropolitan news, manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters on Wednesday (including MLB.com’s Anthony DiComo) Jose Siri A minor league rehabilitation mission is expected to begin this week. Siri broke her left tibia after smudged the ball from her leg in April, and her absence was expected to last for four months. Since he played only 10 games with the Mets before his injury, Siri believes it will take at least a week of minor league action to fully upgrade to a return to the active squad.
Once Gutts expands on September 1, this makes him a candidate for IL activation, although Siri will return to more crowded outfield photos. New York participated in the seasonal plan to use Siri and Tyrone Taylor In the Center Field Schedule, but the deadline is Cedric Mullins Now, with Taylor, a more traditional left and right light is built in the middle. Of course, a player with Siri elite gloves is always valuable, so the Mets can use him as a defensive expert, if nothing else.
