The Florida State League's PotW is Michael Conforto. The second time this season he's won the honor. Click the link for more exciting stuff. He leads the league in total bases with 84, and is in his first full year of pro ball.

deGrom: co-NL Player of the Week with Kershaw. deGrom went 2-0 with a 1.20 ERA and 18 strikeouts in 15 innings pitched.

Twenty plate appearances and a slash line of .421 / .476 / .947 // 1.424? Either Barry Bonds is back or that's Pacific Coast League Player of the Week Anthony Recker. Look at the bat boy. Can barely control himself.

Not for nothing but Niuewenhuis is destroying it out there too. His vulnerability to the radical slump is no help to his career as a reserve but when he's hot, he's the one you want.

He was actually one point above Duda in slugging percentage. But yeah, irregular work does not seem to serve him.

Gabriel Ynoa named Florida State League Pitcher o' the Week. He only started one game, but it was a complete-game, one-hit shoutout, striking out six and walking zippo. John Gant named Florida State League Pitcher o' the Week. He allowed one earned run over 14 innings in two starts, striking out 15 and walking three. They're so awesome, here they are playing catch from 1,240 miles apart.

Your Pacific Coast League PotW is Las Vegas 51s twirler Darin Gorski. Darin got only one start, but struck out 10 in six innings while allowing only a single un-earned run. He previously earned PotW honors once with Binghamton back in 2013. This run of success in the midst of an up-and-down season comes at a good time for Darin Gorski, following the Steven Matz injury, as the Mets may be choosing from among several pitchers should they return to the six-man rotation after the All-Star Break, and he's thrown his hat into ring alongside those of Logan Verrett, Matthew Bowman, Dillon Gee, and maybe Matz himself.

Following up on two Florida State League League PotW honors already this season, your Eastern League PotW is Michael Conforto.

dgwphotography Jul 20 2015 08:52 PM Re: Player of the Week 2015

Conforto went 1-3 tonight in New Britain, with a 2b, RBI and run scored. He hit two other bombs that the CF made running catches on - even his outs were hammered. ...and he signed autographs before the game...

DGW, may I use these photos for my project? I had no plans on a Conforto card but these pictures are great. They are calling to me..~make me a card~.

Such lazy batboys they have in New Britain.

There was a definite sense last night that the Rock Cats are just going through the motions since they are moving to a new stadium in Hartford next season. I have never seen such a sparse crowd in New Britain, and at least half the fans were wearing Mets regalia.

According to Adam Rubin: Binghamton's Seth Lugo named Eastern League Pitcher of Week and Savannah's John Mora named South Atlantic League Player of Week. Binghamton Mets - Seth Lugo by David G. Whitham, on Flickr

Two in a row -- Yoenis Cespedes gets the NL honor for the past week.

The Player of the Week Award goes way back... the first Mets player to win the award was Jerry Koosman, in 1973! [list]Mets Players of the Week[/list:u] The Mets longest stretch without a Player of the Week is 159 weeks, from August 17, 2008 (Johan Santana) to September 4, 2011 (David Wright). That broke the previous record of 147 weeks, from July 31, 1977 (Steve Henderson) to May 25, 1980 (Frank Taveras).

Edgy MD Sep 14 2015 07:32 PM Re: Player of the Week 2015

When Taveras was hot, you couldn't get him out. He was Johnny LeMaster most of the year. But for two weeks here and two weeks there, he was Garry Templeton.
