Brandon Sproat

24-Year-Old PitcherRP
New York Mets AAA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Sproat dominated High-A and Double-A hitters before hitting a wall at Triple-A in his first pro season after not pitching in 2023 after getting selected in the second round. He is known for his age (spent four years at Florida, turns 25 in September) fastball velocity (96.3 mph average in 2024, topped out at 101.5 mph) and plus changeup, although his fastball plays below its velocity due to mediocre shape. The 6-foot-3 righty also boasts an above-average sweeper and seldom-used curveball. His command/control is fringy, so he profiles as a high-strikeout starter who could be a WHIP liability early in his career. Sproat's K-BB% dipped from 26.7 percent at Double-A to 7.8 percent at Triple-A, while his WHIP spiked from 0.87 to 1.64. The 116.1 innings he threw last year were the most he'd ever thrown in a season, so it's possible he just wore down late in the season, and that explains his struggles at Triple-A. However, the caliber of hitter at Triple-A vs. the majors is night and day, so the fact we haven't seen Sproat master Triple-A yet is still a valid concern with regards to drafting him for 2025.

Set to make MLB debut Sunday
PNew York Mets  AAA
September 4, 2025
The Mets will call up Sproat from Triple-A Syracuse to make his major-league debut Sunday with a start in Cincinnati, Michael Mayer of MetsmerizedOnline.com reports.
Analysis
The youth movement in the Mets' rotation is in full effect, as Sproat will join fellow rookie Nolan McLean and Jonah Tong. Sproat got off to a poor start at Syracuse this season but has posted a 2.44 ERA and 70:21 K:BB over 59 innings covering his last 11 outings and struck out nine across seven shutout frames in his most recent start. The 24-year-old isn't necessarily guaranteed any starts beyond Sunday, but with Kodai Senga, Sean Manaea and Clay Holmes all struggling, Sproat will have an opportunity to stick around if he performs.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
NYM not ready to promote
PNew York Mets  AAA
July 2, 2025
The Mets have yet to call up Sproat since the organization doesn't want to interrupt his development process, reports Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News.
Analysis
New York has dealt with a plethora of injuries to the starting rotation, but the organization has yet to turn to their top pitching prospects like Sproat, Nolan McLean or Jonah Tong. Sproat hasn't exactly handled himself well at the Triple-A level with a 5.74 ERA in 17 starts this season and a 7.53 ERA over seven outings in his first taste of the level last year, so the Mets likely want him to turn a corner before promoting him for his MLB debut. Sean Manaea is also close to returning from his oblique and elbow injuries, so rotation reinforcements are already on the horizon for the big club.
