I found a little write up on the Mets 4th round pick from 2007 Richard Lucas. This quote is from Matthew Eddy of Baseball America.
A fourth-rounder from '07, he missed the majority of the '08 season while dealing with off-field issues. Lucas returned with a vengeance this season, showing off natural strength and righthanded bat speed by driving the ball to all fields. He knows the strike zone, too, and handled himself well after a promotion to the New York-Penn League. He's nothing special at third base, but Lucas has pop-up prospect potential.
He goes on to talk about the Mets 4th rounder this year Darrell Cecilliani and Mets 2B prospect Alonzo Harris.
The Mets' fourth-rounder this year, Darrell Cecilliani hails from a small town in Washington, but he's made strides over the course of the past few years. He's a 70 runner who can handle center field and steal bases, but his bat has a ways to go. A lefthanded hitter, he takes a fairly direct route to the ball and has enough pop to drive the ball into the gaps. Cecilliani could develop into a 50-55 type hitter with strong plate discipline and a center-field profile. And secondly, 2B Alonzo Harris lacks pitch recognition skills and tends to swing too big, but he's a quick-twitch athlete who ripped 10 HR and stole 15 bases this season. His feet are quick enough to handle second, though he remains an inconsistent defender.
