Mets Minors Game Chat: Brandon Sproat Making Triple-A Debut
Mets top prospect (No. 1 on my list and many others) Brandon Sproat is making his Triple-A debut for the Syracuse Mets tonight. His previous manager, Double-A skipper Reid Brignac, recently compared his stuff to a future Hall of Famer who played a short time with the Mets.
