Brandon Sproat, a promising Mets pitching prospect, showcased his talent during a spring training game, impressing coaches with a two-inning performance highlighted by a fastball reaching 99 mph. Sproat demonstrated mastery over six pitches, including a well-refined sinker that earned ground-ball outs. His ability to maintain strong velocity and command in his debut has raised expectations for a potential mid-season call-up to the major leagues, reflecting his rapid ascent through the Mets' minor-league system.
It's obviously a cool experience, Sproat said. There's a lot of work that goes into it behind the scenes, whether it's bullpens, playing catch, or working out.
First time pitching in big-league camp, he was really good, manager Carlos Mendoza said. Velo out of the gate. The sinker is a pitch he's working on and I thought it was good.
