New York Mets: Simeon Woods-Richardson Rising Fast

The New York Mets 2018 second-round pick Simeon Woods-Richardson has already made it to Single-A. What makes his promotion incredible is that he is still 18-years old. All he needed was one season in rookie ball and earned the promotion to the Columbia Fireflies this season.

Simeon Woods Richardson struck out 6 in 5 innings of one-run ball last night for the @ColaFireflies.

The 18-year-old over his last 7 starts: 2.20 ERA, .552 OPS, 29.2% K, 7.7% BB, 73 pitches per outing. #Mets pic.twitter.com/EA4kztgb9C
