The first round pick of the Mets has been dubbed "Brett the Met".

Baty was 17th among the top 100 MLB Pipeline prospects before the Mets won with the 12th pick. Baty has just graduated from Lake Travis High School in the Austin, Texas area. Although Baty is committed to Texas Tech, it seems like "Brett The Met" is meant to wear blue and orange. The third baseline striker recorded a ridiculous .658 score with 16 homers and 44 RBIs in the senior season (19, conceded). Baty is highly regarded as one of the best hitters of the project, if not the best.
