Mets have position prospects on deck

Mets prospects Steven Matz, Dominic Smith, Amed Rosario and Gavin Cecchini are on this year's MLB.com Top 100 Prospects list, which was released this past weekend.

Rosario, 20, who checked in at No. 79 on MLB.com's list, could be the organization's long-term answer at shortstop, site editor and prospect guru Jim Callis told MMO's Michael Mayer.

"Good defender, plus runner, chance to do some damage offensively once he gets stronger," Callis said. "Cecchini is a safer bet and will get there first but Rosario should be the better player.
