The MLB draft is a funny one to judge. Most of the time the draft is ignored because unlike football or basketball, the players do not make an immediate impact in baseball. This makes sense though because when we talk about how a player is developing, we are always talking about where they will be over a period of seasons instead of a season. A good draft prospect can make the majors in 3 years, and that would considered fast.
Anyway, the Mets in this years, which will be held between June 5th and 6th, have a few first round picks, something that they did not have last year. Last year in the first three rounds (including the supplemental rounds for the first three rounds) the Mets had 6 picks (42, 47, 72, 93, 99, and 123). The players for those picks were:
    Ed Kunz
    Nathan Vineyard
    Scott Moviel
    Brant Rustich
    Eric Niesen
    Stephen Clyne.
This year the Mets have five picks in the first 3 rounds, and three of them are in the first round. They have pick 18, 22, 33, 68 and 100. The extra picks in the first round are from Atlanta and their signing of Tom Glavine. What this means is the Mets should get some higher touted prospects in the first round, but as draft history shows, order can mean nothing. (For example, in the 1995 draft, the only two players left are Burnett and Nelson Figueroa). So in about 4 years we'll be able to look at this draft effectively.
