The top offensive prospects called up by the Mets at the season.

I'm not worried about Travis at all. He will hit, gap to gap. The other two I dunno. I like that den Dekker has that pop in his bat but if he don't square up more often what's the use? Off the bench, maybe, but you do not want to waste his glove talents. Good late inning replacement? I'm down on Flores because I don't think he plays hard. I watch Murphy bustin it all season in contrast Flores looks like he's running in place. Slowly.

Flores is slow and has injuredy ankles. I don't want to draw moral conclusions if he looks like he's carrying a refrigerator out there. He sorta is.

I don't mean to pass judgement. But there are four basics in baseball. Hit, throw, catch, run. I prefer my players to be able to do all four. The kids got good hands but he'll never be our regular third baseman or second baseman (please lord, don't ever let that happen). He's one I'd shop around for a needed piece.

Catching is sort of a basic too.

I added catching before you posted, sorry. Sliding and good judgment are key but not so much if you can't do the other four imo.
