Spring Survivor

[Edgy MD]

A big hand to the last Mets NRI from 2024 not yet shipped off to minor-league camp and points beyond. He still has a couple of humps to get over if he wants to go north, but there ought to be a special award at the end of camp, whether or not the player makes the team.



Your 2024 Spring Survivor is Ji-Man Choi!

Ji-Man Choi. Say what you want about the man, but he knows how to fight foo.

[Cowtipper]

He has a 144 home runs and a .460 slugging mark at all levels.



I imagine his average is going to be really low, but he might provide some exciting moments.

Not making the roster per multiple reports

[Edgy MD]

But he IS the last surviving NRI. And he IS great at fighting foo.

[G-Fafif]

Foregoes opt-out, will report to Syracuse.

I'm back



Vientos in mort. Can't really call him a prospect anymore



Choi was having a nice spring. He like Vientos loses to JD Martinez and to a lesser extent DJ Stewart



I am a DJ I am what I play

[Edgy MD]

I'm not sure why this is a Vientos thread, but sure I can call him a prospect. And a player.
