Are Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat Must Watch Prospect That Can Help The Mets?!
Two of the Mets' most electric prospects join us from spring training in Port St. Lucie. First up is Jett Williams, who opens up about his 2025 goal board, aiming for 70 stolen bases, recovering from injury, and what he's learning from Juan Soto, Francisco Lindor, and Brett Baty. Then, Brandon Sproat joins us to talk about throwing to Francisco Alvarez, bouncing back from Triple-A struggles, growing the most talked-about mustache in camp, and how he's staying mentally locked in on his MLB dream.
These interviews were recorded in March, but they're even more relevant now—especially with both prospects making noise in the system. If you're excited about the future of the New York Mets, this is a must-listen.
