Baeball America's 2007 Top 100 Prospects

Baseball America has come out with their 2007 Top 100 Prospects list. There are 4 Mets on the list, Mike Pelfrey (20), Fernando Martinez (22), Carlos Gomez (60) and Phil Humber (73).

Here are BA's comments:

Pelfrey: Made the majors three months into his pro career, and should be even better now with his new slider. Major League Expectancy: 2007

Martinez: Followed up an impressive debut as a 17-year-old by holding his own in the Arizona Fall League. Major League Expectancy: 2009

Gomez: Career-high .773 OPS last year shows he's only scratching the surface of his potential. Major League Expectancy: 2008

Humber: Blew out his elbow 15 starts into his pro career in 2005, but bounced all the way back last year. Major League Expectancy: 2008

...why is Humber only #73. He is a pitcher, and pitchers are much more valuable.

...and Gomez should be higher than
Jose Tabata, Jacoby Ellsbury, Adam Jones and Adam Lind.
