At 5'8" tall and a stocky 175 pounds, Jett may be short, but he isn't exactly small. He is an 18 year old shortstop out of Rockwall-Heath High School in Texas that is signed, sealed, and delivered. The 14th overall pick in the 2022 draft has agreed to terms ($3.9 Mill.) with the Mets and will be heading to Florida within the week. Jett brings a right handed bat that has proven to be proficient at barreling up pitches. He is a line drive hitter with surprising power. Most scouts considered Jett one of the best combinations of hitting and speed available in the draft. He has good hands and is considered to have the defensive chops to be a true major league shortstop in the future. Many scouts believe that he could also slot well defensively at second base or centerfield if need be. His father and uncle both attended Stony Brook University and Jett lived on Long Island as a young child, so he has a New York connection. Welcome to the Mets family Jett.
