It was a good week for the Mets minor league system as the organization had three separate players who took home Player of the Week Awards for the week ending July 23rd.

Binghamton Rumble Ponies starter P.J. Conlon was named the Eastern League Pitcher of the Week.

Over the past week, Conlon pitched 13.1 innings over two starts going 2-0 with a 0.68 ERA, 0.900 WHIP, and a 13:3 K/BB ratio. These stats included a three hit seven inning complete game shut out.

This is Conlon’s second Pitcher of the Week Award this year (May 7th) and the third of his career.

St. Lucie Mets first baseman Peter Alonso was named the Florida State League Player of the Week.

Over the past week, Alonso hit .300/.364/.800 with three doubles, four homers, eight RBI, and two HBP. He reached base in every game last week, and he had at least one extra base hit in five of the seven games. The highlight of the week was his two home run game on July 20th.

This was Alonso’s second Player of the Week Award this season (June 25th). It’s also the second of his professional career.

Kingsport Mets outfielder Dionis Paulino was named the Appalachian League Player of the Week.

Over the past week, Paulino played five games hitting .524/.565/.962 with three doubles, two homers, and six RBI. Paulino got at least one hit in all five games played, got an extra base hit in four of the five games, and had three separate three hit games. Paulino also hit his first two homers in the United States.

This is the first time Paulino was named a Player of the Week in his career.
