Around SBN: 7 Important Questions About The Heat Vs. Celtics Series

John Sickels has done his rankings for all MLB teams and their farm systems. He has the Mets in the middle of the pack, which I think is very promising considering where it used to be in years past. It also doesn't hurt that we're ahead of the Yankees and the Phillies either! Let's Go Mets!

It could swing a lot higher next year

There’s a ton of impressive, high upside guys at the bottom of the system and they could develop into top prospects. Depending on whether or not Harvey/Familia graduate, and how Nimmo displays his tools in a full season of ball, this system could be very, very strong this time next year. A lot of early picks this season will reload it pretty fast.

I hope we improve even further.

This is a really good direction.

I'm not sure how this works

But I don’t think the Mets are one of the teams that have to spend less in this years draft.

2013 ALL-STAR GAME(TM) LOGO CONTEST

Major League Baseball has formally announced that Citi Field will be the site of the 2013 All-Star Game. (see video) In light of this, I have decided to launch an All-Star Game logo contest. To help get you started, I provided all of you with a sample All-Star Game logo. (click here to embiggen) If you wish to participate, please enter your submission with an image below, in the comments section. The contest ends on May 31st. I will choose a select number of finalists, and the community will vote on which of those logos is the best one.

Can you create a better logo than the sample logo provided? Then, give it a shot. Good luck to all participants!
