Eligibility
The New York Mets have invited top outfield prospect Drew Gilbert to big-league spring training.
Fantasy Impact
It's not a huge surprise to see the top-100 prospect, according to MLB Pipeline, invited to big league camp. The 23-year-old took off following a trade deadline deal to the Mets, hitting .325 with six home runs, two stolen bases, and a .984 OPS across 35 games at the Double-A level in the Mets system.
Drew Gilbert has been traded to the New York Mets in a deal that sent Justin Verlander to the Houston Astros.
Fantasy Impact
Gilbert is the Astros' top-ranked prospect and first-round pick last year. The Mets are also expected to receiver another minor league player in the trade.
Drew Gilbert is expected to be a full go when the minor league season starts.
Fantasy Impact
Gilbert, the Astros first-round pick last year, played just seven games last season before injuring his elbow crashing into the center field wall. He should be fully healthy for the new season.
