MACK – The Latest Hot Bats – Anthony Delgado, Bohan Adderley, Yonny Hernandez

 

 

 

John From Albany keeps churning out this list and I keep sending it your way.

 


Period 6/15-6/24                              

1B/LF Anthony Delgado/DSL Orange -   .471/.609/.588/1.197

Anthony Delgado is a 19-year-old minor league outfielder (also listed at 1B) in the New York Mets organization, playing in the Dominican Summer League.

Born: January 27, 2007 (age 19) in Jersey City, New Jersey.

Height/Weight: 6'0" / 190 lbs.

Bats/Throws: L/R.

Signed: As an undrafted free agent (UDFA) by the Mets on January 15, 2024.

He is a low-profile international/development signing who began his pro career in the DSL.

2024 (DSL Mets Orange): 27 games, 67 AB  .194 AVG, 13 H (2 2B, 1 3B), 0 HR, 0 RBI (listed), 5 SB, 15 R. 

Strong walk rate → .386 OBP, .640 OPS.

Career Minor League (through available data): Limited to DSL so far, with a .188/.404/.275 line over ~80 AB, emphasizing on-base skills and speed over power.

Missed most/all of 2025 due to injury (placed on 60-day IL in May 2025, activated November 6, 2025).

He is a very early-stage prospect with limited exposure. His profile shows contact/patience tools and speed, but power is still developing (low extra-base output so far). No major prospect rankings or scouting reports appear prominently yet, which is common for DSL UDFAs at this stage.

 


Period 6/16-6/25

Bohan Adderley/FCL Mets      -      .571/.600/.786/1.386

Bohan Adderley is a 19-year-old (born November 10, 2006, in Nassau, Bahamas) outfielder/shortstop in the New York Mets minor league system. He stands 6'3" and weighs 180 lbs, bats and throws right-handed.

Adderley signed with the Mets as an international free agent in January 2024 (reportedly for around $350,000). He came from the International Elite (I-Elite) Sports Academy in the Bahamas and was one of the Mets' 2024 international signees. He initially had little interest in baseball as a child but returned to the sport around 2015, inspired by his older brother and friends. He has cited Bahamian MLB player Jazz Chisholm Jr. as a mentor.

2024 (DSL Mets Orange, Rookie): 47 games, .229 AVG, .356 OBP, 1 HR, 27 RBI, 27 SB in 188 PA. Showed strong on-base skills and speed but struck out quite a bit (26%).

2025 (FCL Mets, Rookie): 49 games, .175 AVG, .296 OBP, 3 HR, 15 RBI, 21 SB in 189 PA. Struggled with contact but maintained some power/speed.

Career Minor League Totals (through mid-2026): Roughly .209-.221 AVG, modest power, high strikeouts, but strong base-stealing ability (dozens of SBs) and improving plate discipline.

He primarily plays outfield (with some shortstop/infield experience) and is known for his athleticism, size, and speed.

As a toolsy, athletic prospect from the Bahamas still in Rookie ball at age 19, Adderley is a high-upside developmental player. His profile emphasizes speed and defense, with work needed on consistent hitting and reducing strikeouts. He has not yet reached full-season ball (e.g., Low-A). Mets fans view him as an intriguing international signee with potential to rise if he improves his bat.

 


Yonny Hernandez/Syracuse Mets      -      .444/.522/.667/1.189

Yonny Hernández (full name: Yonny Jose Hernández) is a Venezuelan switch-hitting infielder (primarily shortstop, second base, and third base) in the New York Mets organization.

Born: May 4, 1998 (age 28 as of 2026) in Maturin, Venezuela.

Height/Weight: 5'8" / 140 lbs (listed variably as 5'8"-5'9").

Bats/Throws: Switch / Right.

Nickname: "Mosquito" (due to his small stature and speed).

Signed: By the Texas Rangers as an international free agent in 2014 (signing bonus $200k).

He has brief MLB experience with three teams but has mostly been a depth player:

Debut: August 5, 2021, with the Texas Rangers.

Teams: Texas Rangers (2021), Arizona Diamondbacks (2022), Los Angeles Dodgers (2023).

Career MLB stats (69 games, 221 PA): .190/.286/.222 slash line, 0 HR, 10 RBI, 13 SB, 22 R.

Best year: 2021 with TEX (.217/.315/.252, 11 SB in 43 games).

Very limited pop (no career MLB homers, low ISO), but he draws walks at a decent rate and has speed.

He has not appeared in the majors since 2023.

Hernández is a classic speed-and-contact utility infielder with a long track record in the minors:

Strong base-stealer (hundreds of stolen bases career-wide).

2025 (with Mets): Solid .303/.380/.372 slash in 114 games across AA/AAA, with good on-base skills and low strikeouts.

He signed a minor-league deal with the Mets in December 2024 after time with the Brewers (released July 2024), Dodgers, and independent ball (Long Island Ducks).

As of 2026: Playing for the Syracuse Mets (Triple-A).

Strengths: Switch-hitter with plate discipline, speed (steals bases), and versatility across the infield. Good contact skills and low strikeout rates at times.

Weaknesses: Very little power (rarely hits for extra bases or homers). Small frame limits impact.

He's more of an organizational depth/utility piece than a high-upside prospect at this stage.

He's a classic "glue guy" type who can fill in at multiple positions and provide speed, but his lack of power has kept him from sticking in the majors long-term.

  1. Another Delgado at first base someday? You never know.

  2. Yonny keeps putting up good numbers in. AAA and Winter Ball. He is the kind of guy that might have gotten a call up in the days of a 40 man September Roster - not so much now.
