BA - Preseason Top 20 Rookies For 2013

                         Preseason Top 20 Rookies For 2013


13. Zack Wheeler, rhp, Mets

Age: 22. Finished Last Year: In Triple-A.
Best Case: Wheeler ascends to New York near midseason, joining a largely homegrown rotation that includes Matt Harvey, Jon Niese and Dillon Gee. Wheeler may not shine as brightly as Harvey did in 2012, but many scouts prefer him for the long term.

Worst Case: Wheeler loses feel for his fastball and lapses into the control wasteland he visited early in his career, particularly if his mistakes are hammered in Las Vegas' Cashman Field and other homer-friendly locales of the Pacific Coast League.

Competition: Wheeler will set his own timetable based on performance, but young power pitchers never go out of style, and the Mets ought to have plenty of innings to distribute in the second half.
