Jarlin Susana, WAS<\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">-Why is Bubba Chandler still in the minors? Baseball&#8217;s top pitching prospect has a 3.82 ERA with 116 strikeouts in 96.2 innings at Triple-A this season. And while his 11.4 percent walk rate still has room for improvement, getting him valuable big league experience now would better position him to break camp with a rotation spot in 2026.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">-Jonah Tong (20 GS, 1.59 ERA, 0.92 WHIP, 162 K, 102.0 IP at AA) and Nolan McLean (21 G, 18 GS, 2.45 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, 127 K, 113.2 IP at AA\/AAA) have sprinted past Brandon Sproat to emerge as the best pitching prospects in the Mets system this season, and they now stand as two of the better young arms in all of the minors. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">-Trey Yesavage slipping to the Blue Jays at No. 20 overall is shaping up to be one of the biggest steals of the 2024 draft. The fourth college pitcher taken in his draft class behind Chase Burns, Hagen Smith and Jurrangelo Cijntje, he sports a 3.01 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and a 134-to-30 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 80.2 innings over three levels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"1.
