Nick Plummer went through peaks and valleys before joining the Mets organization as a free agent prior to the lockout.
The 25 year old, who instantly slotted in as a top ten prospect in the Mets’ system upon signing (including at number eight here at Amazin’ Avenue), came from the Cardinals system, where he faced his fair share of frustrations. Taken 23rd overall by St. Louis in 2015 after a strong tour on the showcase circuit before his senior year, which he followed up with an excellent year in high school, Plummer struggled to find his footing in pro ball.
