OPEN THREAD - OF - Braxton Lee



The Mets have selected outfielder Braxton Lee from the Marlins in the Rule V Draft.

He's a 25-year old speedster with basically no power. Best year was 2017 where he hit .309/20-SB in AA.

Like Dilson Herrera, a good minor league player to fill an open slot. Going into the draft, the Mets had only three outfielders on their AAA board: Tim Tebow, Keven Kaczmarski, Kevin Taylor

Puzzler - this guy has NOT hit. No power.

Was this a minor league selection?

If major league, wouldn't he have to stay on major league club?
I dont see the fit on major league team

Minor league pick, no rules as far as I know.......I agree that he is likely filler for Syracuse.

Amazing that Tim Tebow may be the Mets' best upper minors outfielder - "so easy, an NFL announcer can do it"
