Keep your eye on Nolan McLean. He was drafted as a two way player but mid year he decided to concentrate on pitching. He was named Eastern League Pitcher of the Week. He tossed six scoreless innings and struck out six in his effort, lowering his Double-A ERA to 4.19. McLean looked increasingly better as the season went on, earning a 2.35 ERA in his final six starts. Later
Sproat has been placed on the development list, which means he probably won't be pitching again this year. https://sny.tv/articles/mets-prospect-brandon-sproat-placed-triple-a-development-list?fbclid=IwY2xjawFNrNtleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHQE-Qk-Gn4ZdOE5CXOTulxOmbEvfXX46US2Yf41SycSWi6-IkBAAtrU8Qw_aem_ulVE-B7Z4iQ2AItz_fzqMw Later
