Back To The Minors

Mack's Mets will begin to make the conversion back to a Mets' minor league site.

Spring Training is always fun, and we'll keep posting a daily recap of the ST games until the Mets break camp, but there are plenty of Mets sites to deal with what will go on in Queens.

We at Mack's Mets will keep you in the know regarding the exciting seasons we look forward to covering at all (Buffalo, Biinghamton, St. Lucie, Savannah, Brooklyn, Kingsport, GCL, DSL) eight locations.

As of this morning, it is impossible to determine who is going where. Don't go by the lineups currently playing for different Mets minor league teams. That means nothing at this point. Remember, there are at least 15 players still in the Mets camp that have to be reassigned, to either Buffalo or Binghamton.

We can; however, speculate where some of the players will go and to what degree each team might fare:

AAA-Buffalo - This should be the April home for what I like to call "The Class of 2011". C Josh Thole, 2B Ruben Tejada, CF Fernando Martinez, and 1B Ike Davis all have an exciting future ahead for them in Queens, but they will begin 2010 in Buffalo, for a team that currently is undefeated in spring training.

AA-Binghamton - Last year's league leading outfield of Brahiam Maldonado, Carlos Guzman, and Kirk Nieuwenhuis should all make their way to Binghamton when the season starts there on April 8th.

A+ - St. Lucie - The "Savannah 5"... rotation pitchers Kyle Allen, Jeuryrs Familia, Chris Schwinden, Robert Carson, and Eric Beaulac are all scheduled to make the leap to A+ together in 2010. Joining them should be super prospect SS Wilmer Flores, closer Rhiner Cruz, and

A+ - Savannah - look for 3B Jenry Marte to return here for another year of maturing.

Naturally, we will keep posting the draft information and I'll cut and paste five key stories each morning regarding our parent club in Queens.

This is going to be a very exciting year for Mets minor league fans.  Hang on.
