Mets Prospect Report: Brooklyn Shuts Out Wilmington, St. Lucie Continues Winning Streak

In a day filled with roster moves but no major league game action, the New York Mets’ minor league affiliates showcased their talent on the field. Among the highlights, Brooklyn delivered a dominant performance against Wilmington, while St. Lucie continued to build momentum with a convincing win over Bradenton.

In Portland, the Binghamton Rumble Ponies struggled against the SeaDogs, ultimately falling 7-3 after a disastrous tenth inning. Jefry Yan, who had been solid for most of the game, faltered when it mattered most, allowing four runs—three earned—in that fateful frame. Despite the setback, JT Schwartz shined with a home run, contributing to the Rumble Ponies’ earlier scoring efforts.

Marco Vargas showed patience at the plate with two walks, and Wyatt Young had a notable game, going 2-for-3 with two stolen bases. On the pitching side, Jonathan Santucci struck out seven over 4.2 innings, but the late-game collapse overshadowed his performance.

Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Cyclones enjoyed a 6-0 shutout victory against the Wilmington Blue Rocks. Every player in the starting lineup reached base at least once, with Mitch Voit and Sam Biller each making significant contributions. Daviel Hurtado, making his first start after being promoted from St. Lucie, threw four scoreless innings, striking out three and allowing only two hits.

John Bay added a spark with a home run, while Biller led the team with two RBIs. The Cyclones’ bullpen continued the trend of dominance, marking their second consecutive shutout and fifth of the season.

St. Lucie also celebrated a strong showing, defeating Bradenton 8-2. Every starter recorded a hit, with Antonio Jimenez making a remarkable comeback after earlier struggles, getting on base five times in five at-bats. Julio Zayas and AJ Salgado each contributed home runs, helping the team secure its fourth straight win and seventh in their last ten games.

The day also saw the Mets make several roster moves, including the selection of Eric Wagaman’s contract from Syracuse and the optioning of Jonathan Pintaro and Nick Morabito back to Syracuse. Additionally, Channing Austin was assigned to Binghamton from the Brooklyn Cyclones.

As the minor league season progresses, the Mets are keenly watching their prospects, who are making strides on the field.
