On paper, the New York Mets had themselves a pretty successful 2023 MLB
Draft. But as we know, what’s on paper isn’t going to develop players;
that’s what good organizations with good player development systems do.

Now that the MLB Draft is completed, one Twitter user thought to take a
look at the last 10 years of draft picks and the percentage of each
Major League team’s picks that made it to the majors (for any team).

If you’re loyal to the Orange and Blue and consider yourself to be a
Mets fan, this is the part where you may want to look away. Just 30 of
New York’s 328 draft picks over the past decade have reached the MLB.
That number is a whopping nine percent, which is dead last in the league
and two percent less than the 29th ranked ballclub—the Oakland Athletics.
