Wuilmer Becerra

Shoulder surgery ended Becerra's 2016 campaign prematurely, but he was hitting at a .312 clip at High-A prior to the injury. The 22-year-old expects to be ready for spring training. The 6-foot-3, 225-pound Becerra had just one homer in 65 games and drew just nine walks over that span, though it is difficult to gripe with that latter number considering his high batting average. Becerra stole seven bases as well, and would seem to possess double-digit potential in both home runs and stolen bases over the course of a full season. The Mets saw enough in Becerra's skill set to determine he warranted Rule 5 protection -- they added him to the 40-man roster in November. Still, Becerra needs to show more of a power stroke to profile as a regular corner outfielder at the highest level.
