A few months ago at Baseball America, Matt Meyers released his list of the Top 10 Mets prospects.  However, three of the top four players on his list have been traded, while RHP Mike Pelfrey has since come aboard…

Meyers talked with me about his revised rankings, as well as which minor leaguers are capable of stepping up to help at the major-league level, such as Anderson Hernandez, Brian Bannister and Alay Soler…

To purchase Baseball America’s 2006 Prospect Handbook and 2006 Almanac, go to BaseballAmerica.com……

Matthew Cerrone, from MetsBlog.com…

First off…three of your top ten Mets prospects were traded…how big of a hit is that for this team's farm system…

Matt Meyers, from Baseball America…

It's a pretty big hit.  In our organizational rankings before that trade the Mets probably would’ve ranked around the late-teens, early-20s range, and after the trades they ranked dead last…

Granted, we were unable to include Mike Pelfrey in that – and if you did include Pelfrey that would probably vault them into the 24, 25 range…

Cerrone…

Given the departures, what would your top ten be now…

Meyers…

1. Lastings Milledge
2. Mike Pelfrey
3. Philip Humber
4. Carlos Gomez
5. Fernando Martinez
6. Anderson Hernandez
7. Brian Bannister
8. Alay Soler
9. Deolis Guerra
10. Jon Neise
