In a continuation of last week's series, let's continue to check in on how the Mets' top prospects performed for the 2026 season. Starting off with number four, per MLB Pipeline

4. SS Mitch Voit: 

Voit started slowly, opening the season with High-A Brooklyn. He put up an OPS of .699 in April and .696 in May. It looked like another first-round draft-pick bust for the Mets as summer arrived. But as the weather heated up, so did Voit. He bounced back in June by batting .305, a .901 OPS, along with 12 stolen bases while only getting caught once.

Voit continued his summer surge in July, putting up an OPS of .755 and ending the month with a promotion to Double-A Binghamton. The 21-year-old had burst onto the scene quickly. 13 months after being drafted with the 38th overall pick, Voit was already moving on up to Double-A.

With Binghamton, Voit put up cartoonish numbers. In August, his first full month in Double-A, Voit batted .400 in 89 at-bats, put up an OPS of 1.089, collected 15 RBIs, with nine doubles. He had a four-hit game on August 2nd against Reading, and two days later, had the first five-hit game of his professional career.

In 29 games with Binghamton. In a league where he was playing with guys over two years his senior, Voit batted .347 with an OPS of .947. He was honored in mid-September at Citi Field as one of the Mets' best prospects in 2026. 

Like Carson Benge in 2024, the Mets hope that their top draft pick in 2025 continues to rise quickly up the ranks in MiLB and become a key factor in the very near future in Queens.

5. SS Wandy Asigen:

He turned 17 only a month ago, playing most of his Dominican Summer League season at the age of just 16. He's the youngest player on the Mets' top prospect list, but don't let his age fool you. He's earned the ranking of the Mets' fifth-best prospect, and he proved it this season.

Asigen's season ended prematurely on August 6th, after just 23 DSL games. It couldn't have come at a worse time. During his last three games, he was 3-for-7, with four walks, and hit a home run in three of his last six games.

Overall, though, Asigen's first professional season was a success; considering he was one of the youngest players in the league, he batted .279 with an OPS of .994. He drove in nine runs and was most impressive with his patience at the plate. He walked 19 times to 24 strikeouts in 83 plate appearances. 

Much like other top international prospect, Elian Pena, the Mets seem to have found a diamond out of the Dominican Republic. Will the Mets have Asigen skip the FCL and promote him straight to Low-A St. Lucie in 2027? Due to his age and his lack of games in the Dominican this season, I say they'll start him up in the DSL for the summer of 2027, with a promotion stateside to the FCL on the horizon.

6. 3B Jacob Reimer: 

After putting together a sensational 2025 season, as Reimer posted an OPS of .870 across High-A and Double-A, he came into 2026 regarded as one of the Mets' top prospects and even cracked a few expert top-100 overall prospects in all of baseball.

Unfortunately for Reimer, an early-season slump and mid-summer injuries defined his 2026 season.

After ending May with a batting average of .225 and an OPS of .753, Reimer would only play in 14 total games in June and July, and most of those were rehab assignments in lower levels.

However, once Reimer got healthy, he returned to his 2025 form. In August for Double-A Binghamton, Reimer had a batting average of .302, drove in 17 runs, recorded 26 hits and 10 walks in 100 plate appearances.

It was very encouraging to see Reimer close out 2026 strong. Pipeline still has him ranked well within the top-10 Met prospects, and while his stock did take a hit this season, he's only 22 years old, and if he can stay healthy in 2027, there's no reason to think he can't rocket himself back up the prospect rankings and maybe even straight up to the Majors.
