Incredibly, the regular season in the DSL is OVER. Whoosh!
54 games, last regular season game was to be played on Tuesday. Rained out.
Got to get the kids ready for school, I imagine, so the season ends.
Anyway, the two Mets teams combined finished several games under .500, but several of the players really impressed.
Team-wise….
The Dodgers Machine was in full display. 50 games OVER .500 for their two squads. They averaged plus 3 runs per game!
Phillies 30 over .500.
Astros 20 over .500.
Yankees 15 over.500.
The Mets’ Orange team impressively had the 8th highest OPS out of 50 teams at .774, and Mets Blue was midlle-of-pack (26th) at .711.
Top OPS team (Rockies) were at .816, while the Nats came in last at just .554. Besides hitting just .189, the Nats had a scant 9 HRs, while the Rockies had 51. One team serves Wheaties.
Of course, our slugger extraordinaire Jeffrey Rosa had a Pete-like 15 dingers all by himself in just 44 games to lead the 50 team league, and he also had the highest slug % at .669. Congrats!
Branny de Oleo hit .313,
Jostyn Almonte hit .311, and
Julio Zayas hit .307.
Kudos to all.
The 17 year old Zayas was tied for 3rd with 43 RBIs and importantly fanned just 26 times in 49 games, portending a bright future, especially if he can remain at catcher.
And Heriberto Rincon hit .301, with 17 steals in 20 attempts. Kudos. All those steals, but we refuse to press charges. You’re free to Go Go Go!
Franklin Gomez tied for 6th in Ks with 61 in just 44 innings. Sweet.
Lucas Gordillo barely missed out on the ERA crown, with a 1.21 ERA, and 55 Ks in 37 IP. Killer, who pitched like Godzilla, complete with fireballs.
Lastly, Franyel Diaz fanned 54 in 45 IP, with a 3.00 ERA (and he even went 0-4 in one OF game). Nice.
CONGRATS TO THE 8 PLAYERS NAMED!
MAY ALL 8 CRUSH THE FCL IN 2024!

ReplyDeleteLOTTERY PICK UPDATE
ReplyDeletemore tightening last night with the Mets loss
Currently
PITT. ----
DET. 1/2
METS. 1
Mack, once again I ask you: Is it where they finish the season or where they stand after the lottery is finalized?
ReplyDeleteMy understanding
DeleteWashington is eliminated due to having a lottery.pick 2 yrs in a row
If the Mets have the 6th worse record without WASH in the mix they get the 1.6 pick
If they have the 7th worse they get 1.17
Anyone -.please correct me if I am wrong
Ok, I should have looked. Found this on a website called Tankathon… LOL. How subtle…
ReplyDeleteDETERMINING THE MLB DRAFT ORDER
1 Picks 1-6 are determined by a weighted lottery drawing of non-playoff teams
2 Teams receiving revenue sharing cannot be selected in the lottery more than two years in a row
3 Teams paying revenue sharing cannot be selected in the lottery in consecutive years
4 Picks 7-18 are the remaining lottery teams, ordered by winning percentage
5 Teams eliminated in the Wild Card Round get picks 19-22
6 Teams eliminated in the Divisional Round get picks 23-26
7 Teams eliminated in the League Championship Series get picks 27-28
8 World Series loser gets pick 29
9 World Series winner gets pick 30
10 Ties are broken using the previous year's standings, with worse record winning the tiebreaker
11 If a team fails to sign their pick, they are awarded a compensatory pick in the next draft (one spot worse than the unsigned pick)
Still not sure if a team that finishes outside the top six can squeeze into the top six by virtue of good luck.
ReplyDeleteYes they can If Washington in in the lowest 6
DeleteFor example: they have a SIM LOTTERY button, that’s pressed and with the current standings, the Mets were second pick. I pressed it again and they were 11th. I’m lost.
ReplyDeleteThe last outings by Megill and Peterson only strengthen my call for them to be long men in 24
ReplyDeleteMegilllooked like April 2022 had returned
ReplyDeleteSerious
DeletePitching this strong in the first three innings is what this team needs in the pen
MeGill,Petersen and Vogelbach should be long gone next season. If they’re not expect another 75 win season. If Pete is traded 100 losses will be a possibility.
ReplyDeletePete will be traded
DeleteLook up Miguel Cabrera’s power numbers after his 32nd birthday, and major drop and he’s a Hall Of Famer. Power goes down when the steroids went away
DeleteMr Mack, 6th worst record gets you in weighted lottery where you get your pick by where your number comes up,maybe #1.
