The New York Mets have added top prospect Amed Rosario, outfielder Wuilmer Becerra, catcher Tomas Nido, and right-handed pitchers Chris Flexen, and Marcos Molina to the 40-man roster according to MiLB Roster Tracker on Twitter. The Mets 40-man roster is now currently full.

Each will be protected from being selected in the Rule 5 Draft and automatically receive invites to major league spring training.

Some players that have been left exposed and have a chance of getting drafted on December 8 include RHP Paul Sewald, RHP Kevin McGowan, OF Champ Stuart, and infielder Phillip Evans.

    A little surprised at Flexen but agree on all the others

  2. dan

    I can see teams taking chances on Sewald, McGowan, Evans or Stewart

  3. Mickey Robinson

    With all the infielders and outfielders why do we need Ty Kelly ?
    Would it not been better to protect Sewald or , McGowan ?

  4. Out of place Met fan

    To add Sewald or McGowan it would be Goeddel on the chopping block.

  5. Fan

    Evans will be picked up fast in the rule 5 draft BA has him as one of the cream of the crop – http://www.baseballamerica.com/minors/2016-rule-5-draft-preview/
