Clearly, the MRC team was too involved with the draft to remove
Eric Orze in real time. We regret the delay. He sadly ends his brief second trip to the bigs still having not recorded an out.
Julian Smith only joined the organization on May 29, so it was quick six+ weeks of exciting NY-Penn League life for the guy. He'll likely re-join the Atlantic League, from whence the Mets snatched him up after only two innings this season. Perhaps they should have looked at him a little longer.

Much has already been written about this deal.
TJ Shook has yet to appear as a Rumble Pony, so it's not yet clear whether the Mets plan to work him as a starter, as he has been most of his career, and most of this season, or in long relief, as the Brewers have used him the last month.

As we see higher-round draftees inked to contracts, we get a further look into the glamourous world of undrafted free agent. Look at where these guys — all with marginal collegiate careers are coming from — Georgia! Texas A&M! USC! It seems that the Mets are signing guys who were classmates of some of their high draft picks in order to have familiar faces for their big investments to room with on the road!
Also, please note that, on the same day, the Mets have signed
Eldridge Armstrong III and Eli Serrano III. After 62 years without a single player, as far as Mets Roster Central can tell, majors or minors, with a "III" suffix after his name, on one day, they sign two?!?!
That can't be a coincidence. The Mets are clearly attempting to corner a soft market for thirds. Brilliant!!
