Brewing with Gas: Evaluating Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat

Brad Penner and Sam Navarro-Imagn Images Last night, the Brewers and Mets swung a big trade. Milwaukee sent staff ace Freddy Peralta , along with righty Tobias Myers , to Queens in exchange for two Top 100 prospects in Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams . Both are near-ready contributors who grade out as 50 FVs and slot into Milwaukee’s farm system as the club’s third- and fourth-best prospects, respectively. Sproat projects as a mid-rotation starter, while Williams is a middle-of-the-diamond player with an as-yet undetermined defensive home. Davy Andrews wrote up New York’s side of the swap . Here, we’ll take a look at the youngsters heading to the Midwest. Let’s start with Sproat. After selecting the righty in the third round in 2022 and then failing to sign him, the Mets went back to the well a round earlier the following season. This time they got their man, and the former Florida Gator took to pro ball quickly. He posted a 3.40 ERA with 131 strikeouts in 116.1 i...

More for Gore: Rangers Snag Top-Line Starter in Bulk Deal

Brad Mills-Imagn Images When the market is hot, it seems like it’ll never cool down. Forget the fact that we’re late into free agency and yet too early in the year for contract extensions. The last few marquee free agents to sign are starting to do so – hi, Cody – and that seems to have opened the floodgates for a series of trades. You’ve heard about all the noise the Mets have gotten up to , no doubt. They aren’t the only ones. The Rangers have jumped in on the action in a big way. On Thursday, they acquired MacKenzie Gore from the Nationals in exchange for prospects Gavin Fien , Devin Fitz-Gerald , Alejandro Rosario , Abimelec Ortiz , and Yeremy Cabrera , as Jon Heyman of the New York Post first reported . In some ways, this trade has been a long time coming. Gore has been on the trade block for most of his major league career. First, he got sent from San Diego to Washington in the first Juan Soto trade. Almost immediately upon his arrival in the nation’s capital, however, he ...

Cherry Blossom Seeds: Washington Eyes Rebirth with Five-Prospect Haul in Gore Trade

Gavin Fien Photo: Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images The burners of the hot stove have been simmering across baseball since Kyle Tucker’ s signing, and on Thursday, the Washington Nationals added their ingredients to the pot, trading two years of MacKenzie Gore ’s services to the Texas Rangers for a five-player prospect package (Ben Clemens wrote about Gore’s fit with the Rangers here ). This marks the second significant trade of the Paul Toboni era in Washington ( Harry Ford for Jose A. Ferrer was the other) as he and the new members of the front office look to put their fingerprints on the org. The deal includes Texas’ 2025 first rounder Gavin Fien , injured former top pitching prospect Alejandro Rosario , 2025 rookie-level breakout bat Devin Fitz-Gerald , 23-year-old 1B/RF masher Abimelec Ortiz , and 20-year-old outfielder Yeremy Cabrera . In contrast with yesterday’s Freddy Peralta trade , the Gore return is about a combination of depth and potential ceilin...
