BA Prospect Hot Sheet - #4 - 2B/SS - Dilson Herrera



4. Dilson Herrera, 2b/ss, Mets
Dilson Herrera
Team: high Class A St. Lucie (Florida State)
Age: 20
Why He’s Here: .484/.500/.839 (15-for-31), 7 R, 5 2B, 2 HR, 5 RBIs, 1 BB, 0 SO, 3-for-4 SB
The Scoop: Herrera, obtained from the Pirates last year in the Marlon Byrd deal, just keeps hitting. He leads the minors with 67 hits, ranks second in the FSL in total bases and has posted double-digit totals in doubles and steals with 11 each. He’s a contact fiend who can spray the ball around and has enough sock to rack up plenty of doubles. He’s so much of a contact fiend, in fact, that he had just one non-contact plate appearance (a walk) this week, while recording seven extra-base hits.

Dilson seems to be truly high energy too - played all season last year, then 40+ games in winter ball, and every day this year I believe - he is not hitting any walls be is busting thru them.

There is nothing left for him to do at the A+ level.

He and Nimmo should be at Bingo soon. It will be interesting to see if he's in the long term plans or if he gets repackaged in another trade.

Herrera and Nimmo have nothing left to do at the A+ level... it seems impossible to get both of them out in order

Herrera is one of the youngest in that league and would be in the youngest ten in all of Double-A if he were promoted.

Nimmo, Herrera, Riviera and Matz should all be up to Bingo ASAP.
