MACK – Let’s Revisit - RHSP - Noah Hall


Noah Gibbs Hall is a right-handed pitcher in the New York Mets organization (minor leagues), currently with the Double-A Binghamton Rumble Ponies after time with High-A Brooklyn Cyclones. Background and Bio
  • Born March 30, 2001, in Charlotte, North Carolina.
  • Height/weight: 6'0", 195 lbs; bats/throws right.
  • High school: Providence High School (Charlotte, NC).
  • College: Appalachian State (2020–2021, mostly relief), then transferred to University of South Carolina (Gamecocks). Drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 20th round of the 2022 MLB Draft but did not sign. In 2023 at South Carolina he posted a 3.29 ERA over 7 starts (41 IP, 43 K, 9 BB) before a back injury limited him; he earned SEC Pitcher of the Week honors early that season.
  • Drafted by the Mets in the 7th round (216th overall) of the 2023 MLB Draft and signed for a bonus around $176,250 (reports vary slightly).
Professional CareerHall has dealt with injuries early in his pro career (back in college, shoulder in 2024 that limited him mostly to rehab and Arizona Fall League time). 

He broke out in 2025 with High-A Brooklyn: 5-7, 2.72 ERA over 25 games (21 starts), 112.2 IP, 115 strikeouts, 63 walks (strong strikeout totals and ERA among South Atlantic League leaders at points). 

He set a Brooklyn Cyclones franchise career strikeout record in 2026 and was SAL Pitcher of the Month in July 2026. 

In 2026 he started the year with Brooklyn (Opening Day starter again) before a late-July promotion to Double-A Binghamton. 

2026: 

He is more of a depth/organizational arm than a top prospect, noted for competing and missing bats when healthy rather than premium velocity or pure stuff.Repertoire / Pitch ArsenalHall throws from a high-three-quarters (or three-quarters) arm slot with a somewhat unique/slingy delivery that includes a sweeping lead-foot action across the rubber in the windup (he tones it down with runners on). His best pitch has long been a high-spin changeup. Reported repertoire (from scouting reports, team notes, and his own comments):

  • Fastballs: Four-seam, two-seam/sinker, and cutter. Sits low-to-mid 90s (roughly 91–95 mph), touching 96. The two-seam has armside life; all three shapes are said to play well off his arm slot.
  • Changeup: His standout offering (often graded as his best or a plus pitch). Low-80s with high spin, late arm-side fade/dive and drop (“submarine sink”). Excellent whiff rates historically (e.g., ~55% in college spring 2023); effective vs. both lefties and righties. He has cited learning aspects from Pedro Martínez videos and attributes the high spin partly to basketball influences (Kyrie Irving-style).
  • Slider: Mid-80s, shorter/gyro-style with high spin; used more as a complementary pitch and still developing/tightening for more bite.
  • Sweeper: Developing; he has mentioned throwing good ones and planning to work on it further.
Team notes (e.g., Brooklyn game programs) list: 4-seam fastball, 2-seam fastball, cutter, slider, changeup, sweeper. Command/walk rates have been a consistent challenge (elevated BB/9), which can limit deeper outings, but he generates strikeouts and has shown the ability to induce ground balls and weak contact at times. He has spoken positively about Mets player development resources (pitching lab, mechanics work on hip coil/leg lift, strength/mobility routines) and draws inspiration from pitchers like Pedro Martínez (mentality and changeup), Tarik Skubal, Marcus Stroman, Max Scherzer, and Nolan McLean. 

Overall, Hall is a competitive, changeup-driven righty who has shown solid production at High-A when healthy and is progressing through the Mets system into Double-A as of mid/late 2026. Stats and roles can shift quickly in the minors—check official MiLB/MLB sources for the latest.

Not a good Hall year, resultswise. just 4-9, 5.11, 1.57. Gotta do better in 2027.

I am just glad to hear some good reports about the pitching lab. It seemed like the development system was not helping for a while.
