Mets are looking into several opportunities after they select #19 for some outfielders it seems. According to the Mocks, the 31st pick has three outfielder picks that the Mets could with these picks and they all have some type of upside. We’ll list these three by how much they have been picked in mock drafts:

Buddy Reed, University of Florida, 3 Picks

There’s a lot to be said about Reed, He has some tantalizing upside as a hitter, and thanks to plus-plus speed, he will be able to stick in center. He has had a down year, however, slashing .260/.360/.410.

A switch hitter, Reed is inconsistent from his left side, employing a swing with quite a bit of movement, and has been prone to bad approaches and chasing pitches out of the strike zone. His right side is much better, and quite a bit smoother. Going into an organization like the Mets, who are big on discipline might be good for him in terms of strike zone management, which they preach from the early levels. Considering his double-plus speed, he has a lot he can do, including steal up to 25-30 bases annually, and also has some pop, possibly up to 12-15 home runs annually that he could pull off, and possibly more, should he learn to drive the ball better.

As well, he is a plus defender in center field, and has a plus arm, two things that are rare from a center fielder.

Bryan Reynolds, Vanderbilt, 2 Picks

Reynolds is an advanced college bat with some patience and the ability to stick in center for the short term. A great performer at one of the top college baseball programs in the country, Reynolds has performed well everywhere he’s gone as well, and has delivered a peak year, slashing .335/.462/.615 with 13 homers in his junior year.

He is a switch-hitter with patience, and the ability to draw walks easily. However, he also has a couple of holes in his swing he needs to close up to be able to perform at the peak level of pro ball. His power has emerged this spring and scouts believe he can hit 15-20 homers annually.

While he is a center fielder currently that employs his above-average speed and great instincts to make great routes, it may slow to just average speed in time with added muscle and age, with the chance he may need to be relegated to a corner. Scouts are mixed on his arm strength as well, so if he has to be put in a corner, it could be left field in the long run, but his power should work okay there.

Taylor Trammell, Mount Paran Christian School, 1 pick

Another double-plus runner, Trammell has at least four potential tools to work with, and the last one, his arm, he’s worked to improve.

With a quick left-handed swing, Trammell could probably hit for a decent average, should he hone some his raw nature. He is split between two sports, and has not completely worked out how to recognize off speed pitches and have a plan up at the plate. Should he choose one sport finally, he has a decent chance to hit, and hit well. He also has the potential for 15-20 homers annually, should he learn to tap into his power.

A plus-plus runner, he should be able to steal plenty of bases, and cover plenty of ground in center field. However, his arm is below average, but he has worked hard to improve it, and that has shown up as a positive development lately. He is definitely a high-upside pick the Mets would love to pick.
