The Mets front office has clearly looked at what Jose Reyes brings to the team from a numbers perspective. In 2010, he continued to show some pop from the middle infield position with an OPS+ above 100. However, his production also includes a low 300 on base percentage and failure to take a lot of walks for a lead off player. From a defensive perspective, Jose Reyes has been below average :
Rtz – Total Zone Fielding Runs above average -4
RtzrD – Total Zone Fielding Runs above average on road -5
Rtzhm – Total Zone Fielding Runs above average on road 1
RF/9 – Range factor per 9 innings 4.16 (lg avg 4.31) - baseballhappenings

Five days after the southpaw tossed four scoreless innings in his first Mexican Winter League start of the offseason, Perez fired another six scoreless frames Sunday. Perez limited Obregon to two hits and four walks while striking out four in six innings for Culiacan - ESPN

Wilmer Flores:
11-25-10 from: - MWOB - 4. Wilmer Flores SS - Wilmer is still playing shortstop but many feel that the Mets should just face reality and put him at a position he is defensively best suited to play. If he makes it as a shortstop he will be one of the better offensive players seen at that position, but he will not show a lot of range defensively. He hit .289 with 11 homeruns at Low and High A, showing less patience in the Florida State League with a 9/40 walk to K ratio. A calf injury stalled his winter campaign, but he is back hitting .429 with two homeruns in seven games. Most expect him to eventually settle into right field. Whereever he plays his bat will always be one of the best at the position he plays.
11-24-10 from: - mets geek - 12. Eric Goeddel. Goeddel was an incredible get for the Mets, going over slot for him in the 24th round of this year draft. He is a three pitch pitcher with a plus fastball and a plus slider. I saw him pitch for UCLA on TV, where he was the primary set up man for the Bruins after redshirting due to elbow surgery. His slider was filthy good. He was expected to be the Bruins Sunday starter (ACE) if he had returned for his junior year. I expect him to be eased into the Savannah starting rotation this spring. Best case scenario is a two/three starter or late inning reliever. Worst Case Scenario is that he never refines his pitches, stuck in mediocrity.
11-25-10 from: - MWOB - 6. Brad Holt RHP - Holt is another hard thrower whose future may be in the bullpen as a closer. His fastball touches 95 but the quality of his secondary pitches may still need some work. If they don’t develop the Mets could put him in the closer role. He had an awful 2010 season, struggling to find the strike zone. His 8.34 ERA between A and AA with 79 walks in just 95 innings was horrendous. He also gave up 111 hits. The Mets felt he needed more work and assigned him to the AFL. He was like a different pitcher, going 2-1, 2.92. He still needs to work on improving his command as he still walked nine hitters in only 12 plus innings of work. In 2009 he had a 6.12 ERA at AA and asked to repeat AA he crashed to a 10.20 ERA. Even with a demotion to the pitcher friendly Florida State League his ERA was at a forgettable 7.48. He needs to find some success at AA before he advances.
