Both play for the Binghamton Mets and are first baseman. They've both been hitting outstandingly so far(One plays DH, other at first everyday).
Both players were drafted out of high school in 2004. Evans is 22, and Carp is 21(22 in June).
In 2006, Carp has a breakout year at Hi-A, but he struggled with injuries in 2007, so he's repeating AA. In 2007, Evans had a breakout year in Hi-A, and now he's at AA.
Carp is hitting .474 with 4 HR, 4 2B, 13 RBI, a .895 SLG and a .500 OBP. His entire career, people have been worried about his ability to hit lefties, who he has never hit, but he has 2 HR and is hitting .412 against LHP this year
Evans is hitting .444 with 2 HR, 3 2B, 2 3B, 13 RBI, a .806 SLG and a .476 OBP.
Do either of these guys have a chance of becoming real prospects? Top 100 guys?

I
think Carp likely will be a slightly better Mike Jacobs and Evans a Craig Wilson type

It is not just current Mets prospects
Dustin Martin is killing the ball for AA New Britain. Martin was dealt at the trading deadline last year in the Luis Castillo deal

What about Brian Bannister?
A complete game today, and now has three wins
When is Burgoes coming back off the DL?
