Four-Star Prospects
2. Fernando Martinez, CF

Three-Star Prospects
5. Jon Niese, LHP
6. Brad Holt, RHP
7. Kirk Nieuwenhuis, OF
8. Josh Thole, C
9. Kyle Allen, RHP
10. Ruben Tejada, SS
11. Reese Havens, SS
Four More:
12. Jeurys Familia, RHP: Familia had the best pure arm on an impressive staff
at Low-A Savannah last year, but most see him in a future relief profile.
13. Cesar Puello, OF: An athletic Dominican who has impressive tools, Puello
also has considerable rawness.
14. Jefry Marte, 3B: Marte wasn't ready for a full-season league, but he has
the ability to move back up the list.
15. Juan Urbina, LHP: He’s a big bonus Venezuelan who has crazy upside, but
he needs considerable refinement.
1. Jenrry Mejia, RHP
DOB: 10/11/89
Height/Weight: 6-0/160
Bats/Throws: R/R
Drafted/Signed: Dominican Republic, 2007
2009 Stats: 1.97 ERA (50.1-41-16-44) at High-A (9 G); 4.47 ERA
(44.1-44-23-47) at Double-A (10 G)
Last Year’s Ranking: 7
Year in Review: This right-hander took a big step forward in 2009, as he
reached Double-A as a teenager and more than held his own.
The Good: It's rare to find a fastball with plus-plus velocity and movement,
but Mejia has just that. His heater sits at 93-95 mph, touches 98, and
features heavy, hard sink, generating as many grounders as it does swings and
misses. He'll flash a plus changeup that also features significant downward
action. While he's a bit undersized for a starter, he's broadly built (well
over his listed weight), has clean arm action, and scouts have no problem
projecting him as a starter.
The Bad: Mejia needs to find a consistent breaking ball. He gets around on
his slider too often, leading it to sweep across the plate on a single plane.
His pitches have so much movement that at times he has trouble controlling
them in the strike zone.
Ephemera: While Mejia got hammered in the Arizona Fall League to the tune of
25 hits and 21 runs over just 14 1/3 innings, there was a bit of silver
lining, as he did not give up a home run and generated 21 ground-ball outs
against just six of the fly-ball variety.
Perfect World Projection: Mejia will be an upper-echelon starter.
Path to the Big Leagues: Power arms like this are rarely blocked.
Timetable: While Mejia will continue his development as a starter, his
fastball alone could land him in the Mets’ bullpen at some point during the
season.
