Mets’ Boston Baro Stays Hot In St. Lucie
Last July, Boston Baro had just heard his name called in the eighth round of the 2023 draft. Now, he’s standing out on the Mets’ Low-A affiliate in the Florida State League. On Sunday, he racked up three singles, drove in three runs and added a walk in his team’s rout of Lakeland. The game continued a strong July in which Baro, 19, has hit .302/.380/.349 with nearly as many walks (6) as strikeouts (8). In BA’s most recent update to its Top 30 Prospects lists, Baro ascended to the No. 18 spot.
