Scouting Reports
-
BA Grade: 45/Extreme
Track Record:: Fanas initially looked like he was headed to the Angels in their 2020-21 class, but that never came to fruition, and the Mets instead stepped in to sign Fanas for $1.5 million when the 2021-22 signing period opened on Jan. 15, 2022.
Scouting Report: Fanas, who is a year older than most of the top international signings in his class, has a strong, physical frame with athleticism and tools that pop across the board. He has a chance to be a power center fielder, with plus-plus speed underway. That might slow down given his body type, so some scouts thought he might be headed for a corner, but scouts highest on him see an athletic center fielder with a strong arm. At the plate, Fanas has a good eye for the strike zone, seldom chasing and driving the ball with impact from both sides of the plate when he does swing with a chance for above-average power.
The Future: Fanas has a level of physicality, athleticism and tools that sticks out among Mets prospects at the lower levels, though he's still yet to be tested. He first exposure to pro ball should come this year in the Dominican Summer League.
