Hot pitching prospect Brandon Sproat is quickly proving his talent within the system, but the Mets need to see more from the righty before he gets a green light to the majors for September call-ups. 

Before the Mets’ game against the Marlins on Friday night, president of baseball operations David Stearns praised Sproat, who recently landed 40th on the MLB.com’s latest top-100 rankings, but cautioned against lofty expectations. 

“I think he’s had about as good as a minor league season as you can possibly have,” Stearns said. “I think he’s throwing more strikes. He’s rounded out his arsenal. He’s improved his change up. He’s competed at a very high level very consistently. He’s bounced back from the occasional rough outing. 

“So we’ve been really pleased with his development this year. He just needs experience. This is a very new player to professional baseball and he has moved really rapidly through our system, and he has proven that and he deserves that. But I think we need to make sure that he also dominates the level he is at now before we really start talking about what comes next.” 

Sproat, 23, drafted by the Mets in 2023 out of the University of Florida, has rapidly risen from High-A Brooklyn to Triple-A Syracuse in a matter of months. 

In his 17 starts in High-A and Double-A, the righty starter went 6-2 and held a 2.05 ERA with 110 strikeouts and 31 walks. 

But Sproat’s only two starts in Syracuse were underwhelming. 

In his first start he allowed six earned runs and the second start saw Sproat pitch three innings and allow one earned run before he was ejected for arguing a call with the home plate umpire. 

Though a call-up in two weeks isn’t completely off the table, the Mets need to see more of Sproat at the Triple-A level before he makes his way to Queens. 

Whatever that path may look like, Sproat has said he is open to any role, even if that means being used out of the bullpen instead of joining the rotation to help the Mets where they’re hurting. 

“Whatever chance I can get to get to the big leagues as quick as possible, whether that’s starting or relieving, I’m definitely not going to complain about it,” Sproat said in July at the All-Star Futures Game in Texas. “I’d figure out a way.”
