He wasn’t even all that close to being eligible. One of the requirements for eligibility is less than 45 days on a major league roster. Before the all-star break this year he pitched in 43 major league games, so unless he’s played in a whole lot of double-headers I think it’s safe to say he had served his 45 days.

simple question.

Why isnt joey devine on this list since weathers is? he hasnt allowed an earned run since may 20th. his overall numbers are amazing for a young rp.

he’s 6-1 with a 0.60 era 0.78 whip 49 strikeouts in 45 innings. this isnt even minors records and he qualified for a prospect even before the list was made.

Yeah’ he’s injury prone, but so was Jose Reyes and he turned out pretty well. My point about Grady Sizemore was the best prospects don’t always put up the best numbers. Other than OBP Sizemore’s stats at age 19 in advanced A were no better than F Mart’s in AA. Hell, look at Hanley Ramirez’s stats his last year in AA at age 21. .271 AVG, .335 OBP, .385 SLG, 6 HR’s in 465 AB’s. Where’s the power? Yet, he was still considered a huge prospect and rightly so. I’ve only seen F Mart play a few times, but everything I’ve read and heard about him has been positive. He’s the first guy teams ask for when the Mets talk trade. He has a quick bat and power should come as he develops. He’s pretty high up on every prospect list I’ve seen the last few years. Baseball America had him at 20 before the season. If you want to argue he’s not an “elite” prospect based on his stats this year, that’s fine, but he belongs on any top 100 list. To put Nick Evans ahead of him and to say he shows “no hitting ability whatsoever” is ridiculous. .220 is no hitting ability. He’s a highly regarded prospect whether his stats tell you that or not.

Wow, he’s hitting .292. I’m convinced. How about how often he makes contact, how often he walks, how often he hits for power or is projected to, his ability to stay healthy, the ability to play a decent defensive CF (and thus the ability to stay in CF)…

Batting average: Good
Things that matter: Not so much

And FWIW, when Grady Sizemore was Martinez’s age, he was putting up a near .400 OBP in the Carolina League.

Martinez is 19 years old hitting .292 in AA. No hitting ability whatsoever? Idiotic statement. He’s a developing prospect. Check out Grady Sizemore’s stats at 19. He probably wouldn’t of made your list either. Nick Evans is far from the Mets best prospect. When teams talk trade with the Mets they ask for Fernando Martinez and Jonathan Niese, not Nick Evans.

I think he’s in Binghamton right now, continuing to show no hitting ability whatsoever.
