Summary
The Mets take a bold gamble on high-upside pitcher Carson Wiggins, the 27th overall pick, despite his Tommy John surgery and lower pre-injury ranking. From Arkansas, Wiggins boasts elite velocity—97 mph in his recent bullpen—and elite arm talent that scouts have followed since high school. With 16 Arkansans and 7 pitchers already selected in the first round, the Mets are betting big on his recovery and potential to anchor their future rotation.
