3 days agoNew York Mets starting pitching prospect Brandon Sproat allowed three hits and four earned runs across two innings of work in his season opener with Triple-A Syracuse. He allowed three free passes and struck out three batters. He ran into most of his trouble in the third innings when he served up two consecutive walks and then allowed a two-run single to Marcelo Mayer, which broke the game open. Sproat was in contention to make the Opening Day roster but was eventually sent to Triple-A Syracuse to continue his development. Last season, the Florida product progressed through the minor leagues fairly quickly, boasting a 2.05 ERA with a 0.94 WHIP across 87 2/3 innings split between High-A and Double-A. He ran into trouble during his first taste of Triple-A last summer, and these struggles appear to still remain. Fantasy managers should monitor his status, but he will need to progress much further at Triple-A before reaching Queens.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

4 weeks agoThe New York Mets reassigned right-handed pitching prospect Brandon Sproat, the team's top prospect per MLB Pipeline, to minor-league camp on Tuesday. In addition to Sproat, the Mets also reassigned right-handers Ty Adcock, Adbert Alzolay, Dom Hamel (No. 26), Oliver Ortega and Blade Tidwell (No. 16), infielders Ryan Clifford (No. 4), Luke Ritter and Jett Williams (No. 2), outfielders Drew Gilbert (No. 11), Rafael Ortega and Alex Ramirez, and catcher Kevin Parada. Sproat is expected to make his big-league debut with the Mets in 2025, but even with left-hander Sean Manaea (oblique) and right-hander Frankie Montas (lat) opening the year on the injured list, he will start at Triple-A Syracuse. In his Grapefruit League debut last Friday against the Nationals, Sproat tossed two scoreless innings with a strikeout. The 24-year-old is old for a prospect, but his fastball-changeup combo and strikeout upside make him stash-worthy in NL-only leagues.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

1 month agoNew York Mets pitching prospect Brandon Sproat tossed two clean innings in his spring debut on Friday. The right-hander tallied one punchout and did not allow a single baserunner. He tallied the punchout against Nationals outfield prospect Robert Hassell III, who has been swinging one of the hottest bats during the early part of camp. Sproat should be in contention for an early season MLB debut given the injuries to Sean Manaea (oblique) and Frankie Montas (lat). Last summer, the 24-year-old made his professional debut. He began the campaign with High-A and was able to reach Triple-A by the end of the summer. Across 62 1/3 innings with Double-A, Sproat held a strong 2.45 ERA with a 0.87 WHIP. However, in his first look at Triple-A, he held a high 7.53 ERA with a 1.64 WHIP across 28 2/3 innings. Given his struggles at that level, he will likely open the season at Triple-A but may only need a brief stint before reaching the majors.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

1 month agoNew York Mets starting pitching prospect Brandon Sproat has begun tinkering with a sinker. Sproat made his professional debut last summer and relied heavily on his four-seamer and changeup. However, in the offseason, the right-hander has begun working on his sinker. The Mets as a team have aggressively developed sinkers in their pitching staff. Sproat only threw a handful of them last season but is pleased with how it has evolved over the winter. The top prospect in the Mets system opened the campaign at the High-A level and eventually ended the season with Triple-A. At Double-A, the Florida product held a strong 2.45 ERA and a 0.87 WHIP across 62 2/3 innings. However, at Triple-A, Sproat took a step back as he held a 7.53 ERA and a 1.64 WHIP. He will likely begin his 2025 season with Syracuse but should be in the mix for an early 2025 debut.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

2 months agoAccording to Will Sammon of The Athletic, New York Mets starting pitching prospect Brandon Sproat will likely make his big league debut sometime in the second half. Sammon noted the top prospect in the New York system will open the season at the Triple-A level. Last summer, Sproat made his professional debut and performed very well. He began the season with High-A Brooklyn and held a 1.07 ERA with a 1.11 WHIP across 25 1/3 innings of work. He then moved up to Double-A, where he struck out 77 batters in just 62 1/3 innings. Across that stint, the right-hander posted a 2.45 ERA with a strong 0.87 WHIP. However, once he reached Triple-A, the Florida product took a step back, holding a hefty 7.53 ERA with a 1.64 WHIP across 28 2/3 innings. Fantasy managers should monitor his progress during spring training. The 24-year-old should only be viewed as a stash candidate in deeper redraft formats, as he may not contend for a big league debut until the second half of the campaign.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
