Mets Prospects Irving Cota, Ryan Lambert Named To Arizona Fall League All-Star Team

[Michael Reed]

The Arizona Fall League has been a gold mine for the majority of the five New York Mets pitchers sent to the desert, and today two of them were given All-Star honors.

Irving Cota has been largely dominant in his time with the Surprise Saguaros. In 12.2 innings, Cota has 15 strikeouts and a 0.87 WHIP. While he has dealt with some recent struggles, a Fall Stars recognition was still deserved after his dominant start to his fall campaign.

Ryan Lambert has also been dominant this fall, still not allowing a hit or earned run in six innings of work. Lambert has also accumulated 10 strikeouts in that span. He was supposed to be called to the big leagues at one point this past season, but struggles delayed that from happening. With the huge fall that he is having, Lambert is putting himself on track for another shot at a potential call-up.

The Fall Stars Game will happen this Sunday, Nov. 8, at 8pm EST.
