I was asked earlier today
how long it would take David Peterson, who is
now pitching in St. Lucie, to get to Queens as a starter.
I said 2020, using the obvious Mets slow plan of Binghamton/Syracuse
next year (2019) and a Queens rotation slot (if everything worked out) in 2020.
I was questioned if I was estimating this too be too long
because 2020 would be the 4th year as a Met.
What’s Sandy’s history here?
2011: Logan
Verrett 2015 4
seasons
Tyler Pill 2017 6 seasons
2012: Matt Koch 2016 (Ariz) 4 seasons
2013: none
2014: Gabriel
Llanes still in
minors 5 seasons
2015: P J Conlon 2018 3 seasons
These are the college starters Sandy and Company have drafted
in the first 20 rounds of his first five drafts.
Five starters out of 100 picks.
Not ever impressive, but the point is that the range a
college starter will make Queens… on this team… is in the 4-5 year range.
That makes my prediction of four years for Peterson within
range of Sandy’s history here.

I think we get Peterson mid-2019, which would be his 3rd year. Tim Peterson already broke the Peterson glass ceiling for David.
Thanks Mack for the facts...
These stats are awful... I don't know if this is actually consistent across MLB but if so then we should only draft High Upside with the Highest ceiling Prospects...
it takes them forever to arrive they may as well be amazing when they do
Although the Nats and braves say otherwise...
Talent is talent at any age
