Summary
The Mets stunned the baseball world by drafting pitcher Carson Wiggins—100 mph fastball, Tommy John survivor—with their top pick. Scouts were blown away by his bullpen session and MLB Combine performance, calling his stuff “jumping off the page.” Though his track record is short due to injury, Wiggins’ family legacy (his brother also hit 100 mph) and projected frontline potential make this a high-risk, high-reward gamble the Mets are biting on—possibly ready for pro ball before summer ends.
