Fans of the Binghamton Rumble Ponies will be seeing a familiar face with the New York Mets starting this week.

That's not to say Baty isn't capable of playing at the highest level already, but there's no need for the Mets to rush his development when they currently have the second best record in Major League Baseball. Baty, named the Eastern League Player of the Month in July, was only recently called up to triple-A Syracuse before injury emergencies led to his call to the big leagues. Of course, Rumble Ponies fans shouldn't expect to see Baty back at Mirabito Stadium anytime soon.

The New York Mets have made one of their top prospects a part of the major league ball ...

In his time with the big league ball club in 2015, Conforto hit .270 while carrying an .841 OPS while helping the Amazins go on to clinch their 6th NL East title in franchise history and eventually reach the World Series. But when was the last time the Mets relied on a prospect to help the offense during a heated pennant race? Not a lot has gone wrong for the Mets in 2022, but recently they have been getting banged up and have struggled to find offensive production.

The 22-year-old third baseman has enjoyed a standout season in the high minors.

He's in the lineup, hitting eighth and playing third base Wednesday night against the [Braves](https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/teams/ATL/atlanta-braves/) in Atlanta. While the Mets at 75-42 are playoff locks, their lead over the Braves in the division is down to 3 1/2 games. There are some areas of concern to keep in mind with him, however, as his strikeout (25.6 percent) and groundball (61.2 percent) rates at Double-A suggest he wasn't maximizing skill set, especially considering his well-above-average raw juice. In 95 games at the Double- and Triple-A levels in 2022, he's put up a slash line of .315/.410/.533 with 19 home runs and 22 doubles in 420 plate appearances. Baty did well to quiet concerns in his first full pro season, batting .292/.382/.473 with 12 home runs and 22 doubles across High- and Double-A. Baty, 22 years of age and the No.

A product of Lake Travis High School in Austin, Baty was the Mets’ first-round pick in 2019. After Luis Guillorme and Eduardo Escobar were both injured this week, calling up Baty — the organization’s second-ranked prospect — became a logical move. 22, hitting eighth in the order and playing third base.

He will make his Major League debut on Wednesday against the Braves at Truist Park, batting eighth and playing third base behind Max Scherzer. As recently as ...

The team could have called up fellow third baseman Mark Vientos, who has been in the organization since 2017 and has more experience than Baty in the upper Minors. In 2015, Conforto hit nine home runs in 56 games to spark the Mets on their National League pennant run, plus another three in the postseason. The Mets have tried Baty in left field over the past two seasons, though they still view third base as his most likely long-term home. Baty will now look to make the school just as well known for baseball. That future is now for Baty, the organization’s 12th overall pick in the 2019 MLB Draft. As recently as Monday, Mets officials were unwilling to call up Baty, mostly because they did not view him as a versatile enough defender to fill the hole Luis Guillorme left behind when he landed on the injured list with a strained left groin.

Even when healthy, Mets third basemen have hit for a collective 84 wRC+ (23rd-best in MLB) this season, meaning Baty could also be an upgrade on the Mets’ present of the hot corner too -- a present that is fighting for an NL East title and the club’s first World Series crown since 1986. That throwing ability has helped him during brief looks in left field in 2021 and 2022; in fact, he registered an outfield assist on a play at the plate last Friday in his first Triple-A game on the grass.

Outfielder Estevan Florial and utility man Oswaldo Cabrera had both been playing well at Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, but their ascension had more to do with issues at the major league level than it did with their readiness. He was hitting .312 with a .406 on-base percentage, .544 slugging percentage and 19 home runs over 89 Games at Class AA Binghamton this season when he got the call up to Syracuse on Aug. He was selected with the 12th overall pick in the 2019 draft and steadily worked his way up. The team did not call him up when Luis Guillorme hit the injured list with a strained left groin, but third baseman Eduardo Escobar’s hitting the I.L. The day included rain delays for both clubs, extra innings for the Yankees, and wins all around. Baty’s second-inning blast traveled 377 feet, and the ball was returned to him by a security guard. The immediate impact came on a day when the Mets and the Yankees, both working their way through difficult weeks with games against division rivals, turned to top prospects to offer some lineup depth and a bit of a jolt. He did so with his parents and sister in attendance. Naturally, Baty, a 22-year-old third baseman, made a beeline for the airport, but not soon enough, thus delaying his major league debut by a day.
