- SS Matt Reynolds: 1-5, 2 R, K
- CF Kirk Nieuwenhuis: 2-4, 4 R, 2 HR, 5 RBI, 2 BB; Kirk is hitting like a guy who wants to get back to Queens. He's slashing .400/.457/.1000

- 1B Brandon Allen: 5-6, 2 R, 2 2B, 2 RBI, BB, K

- RHP Dillon Gee: 5 IP, 7 H, 6 R, 6 ER, BB, 6 K; Somehow I don't see Gee in the PCL as a good fit.
Double-A - Binghamton Mets (37-34)_____________________________________
HARRISBURG 2, BINGHAMTON 1 (Box)
- SS Gavin Cecchini: 0-4, K
- 2B L.J. Mazzilli: 1-3, BB
- LF Michael Conforto: 1-3, BB, K; Almost wanted to TRAID COMFORTO but then he ended his 0-12 skid.

- RHP Robert Gsellman: 6 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 5 K; Solid if unspectacular.
Advanced-A - St. Lucie Mets (35-36 / 1-3)_____________________________________
BRADENTON 4, ST. LUCIE 3 (Box)
- PR Champ Stuart: 0-0
- 2B-3B Jeff McNeil: 1-3, 2 BB, K; McNeil might the most underrated prospect in the system. Is he a top 10 prospect after all the graduations?

- LF Stefan Sabol: 0-4, 3 K
- SS Amed Rosario: 0-2, R, RBI, BB

Rookie - Kingsport Mets (2-1)__________________________
KINGSPORT 10, JOHNSON CITY 8 (Box)
- CF Raphael Ramirez: 2-4, R, 2B, RBI, BB; off to a fast .417/.467/.583 start
- 2B Luis Carpio: 0-5, K
- 1B Dash Winningham: 1-5, R, HR, 2 RBI
- DH Patrick Mazeika: 1-4, BB, K
- SS Milton Ramos: 2-4, 2 R; Ramos is off to a quick start with the bat but the profile still screams Tovar 2.0. Actually, that's not necessarily a bad thing. Tovar is just a little bit of bat away from being a major leaguer.
- LF Kevin Kaczmarski: 2-4, 2 R, K
- C Darryl Knight: 2-4, R, 2 HR, 3 RBI
- RHP Audrey German: 5.1 IP, 9 H, 6 R, 6 ER, 3 BB, 3 K
Rookie - GCL Mets (0-2)__________________________
SUSPENDED (RAIN) (Box)
The GCL Mets were suspended due to rain for the second game in a row but the box score is linked above for your perusal. You'll notice there was a Gabriel Llanes sighting. He was an overslot righty from the 2014 draft.
Star of the Night
Darryl Knight. I could see a case for Kirk but we have to account for park and league in these calculations.
Goat of the Night
Dillon Gee
