Amed Rosario Stats

On Tuesday, the New York Mets finally made the call to top prospect Amed Rosario to join the big leagues. It was music to the ears of Mets fans and fantasy owners alike who couldn't wait for the 21-year-old shortstop's debut. It wasn't the start most were hoping for, though, as it was a largely uneven performance. Rosario finished 1-for-4, beating out a grounder for his first hit in the eighth inning while making several nice plays in the field. However, what Rosario will remember this one most for is a misplay in the ninth inning when he broke to cover second base on an infield single from D.J. Lemahieu, allowing Charlie Blackmon to advance to third (who eventually scored the game-winning run on a Nolan Arenado walk-off single). No, it wasn't the best of debuts; fortunately one game does not a career make. His production will likely be up and down the rest of the year, but there' s little doubt he has the talent to be a Major League force.

Not much has gone right for the New York Mets in 2017 – but the future is now and the team just became a lot more fun to watch as they play out the rest of the year. According to General Manager Sandy Alderson, the team is calling up top prospect (shortstop) Amed Rosario to make his MLB debut on Tuesday in Colorado. To make matters even better, first basemen Dominic Smith "shouldn't be far behind" him. Rosario was ranked as the #2 prospect in MLB.com's midseason list, and #4 on Baseball America's rankings. In Triple-A Las Vegas, Rosario is hitting .328 with seven home runs, 58 RBI and 19 stolen bases across 94 games. He also brings an excellent glove to short and should be a gold glove candidate for years to come. He is highly likely to be already owned in your dynasty/keeper league, but he will provide real value in redraft leagues too. Go grab him while you still can.

There has been some speculation that top New York Mets prospect Amed Rosario could be called up after the trade deadline on July 31. The Mets are likely to be sellers at the trade deadline with infielder Asdrubal Cabrera among the players who may be traded away. Cabrera's departure would create a hole at shortstop which Rosario could slide into. Rosario is batting .329 with seven homers, 59 runs, 55 RBI, and 17 stolen bases in 88 games at Triple-A this season. For now the call up is just a rumor but Rosario would be a hot waiver pickup if him joining the Mets becomes a reality.
