Mets prospects Nolan McLean and Carson Benge quit being two-way players to speed up their big league goals
Briefly

Nolan McLean and Carson Benge, former Oklahoma State stars, are thriving in the New York Mets' minor league system. Their old coach, Josh Holliday, expresses little surprise at their success, calling McLean a 'remarkable world-class athlete' due to his versatility in sports. He praises Benge's unique hitting ability, noting his balanced approach and strong performance in college baseball. Both players exemplify the talent and skill that was evident during their college careers, making their advancement in professional baseball a natural progression.
They're both studs. There's not much Nolan McLean can't do, whether it was throw a football, shoot a basketball, hit a baseball, pitch a baseball, catch a baseball, just a remarkable world-class athlete.
Very rarely in college baseball [do] you see a hitter collect as many hits to the opposite field as they do the pull side, and over Carson's career, he was pretty close to having a balanced number of base hits to all quadrants of the field.
