The Baseball America’s Prospect Hot Sheet covers minor league games from May 16-22 and recognizes the hottest prospects in the minors during the past week only.

4. Dilson Herrera, 2b/ss, Mets

Team: high Class A St. Lucie (Florida State)
Age: 20
Why He’s Here: .484/.500/.839 (15-for-31), 7 R, 5 2B, 2 HR, 5 RBIs, 1 BB, 0 SO, 3-for-4 SB

The Scoop: Herrera, obtained from the Pirates last year in the Marlon Byrd deal, just keeps hitting. He leads the minors with 67 hits, ranks second in the FSL in total bases and has posted double-digit totals in doubles and steals with 11 each. He’s a contact fiend who can spray the ball around and has enough sock to rack up plenty of doubles. He’s so much of a contact fiend, in fact, that he had just one non-contact plate appearance (a walk) this week, while recording seven extra-base hits.

11. Brandon Nimmo, cf, Mets

Team: high Class A St. Lucie (Florida State)
Age: 21
Why He’s Here: .391/.548/.652 (9-for-23), 7 R, 1 2B, 1 3B, 1 HR, 3 RBIs, 8 BB, 4 SO, 1-for 2 SB

The Scoop: Part of St. Lucie’s terrific top-of-the-order trio with Dilson Herrera and T.J. Rivera, Nimmo has turned the corner and then some this season in the FSL. He reached base 17 times this week and has done so in nine consecutive games. He leads the FSL in on-base percentage (.477), runs (44) and walks (45), while ranking second in the batting race (.341) and eighth in slugging (.474). With all-star festivities just a few weeks off, expect Nimmo to play a starring role.
