Mets Reliever Prospect Dylan Ross Shows High-Leverage Potential

Mets prospect Dylan Ross, a power reliever, was called up late in the 2025 season but did not play. After a Tommy John revision, he debuted professionally in September 2024. In 2025, across three minor league levels (mostly Triple-A), he posted a 2.17 ERA with 80 strikeouts in 54 innings, though he issued 33 walks. His command is expected to improve with more reps (only 66.2 innings since 2022). Ross features a 97-101 mph fastball, a low-90s splitter (48.3% whiff rate), and an upper-80s slider (67.7% whiff rate). He is considered to have high-leverage, setup potential and is expected to compete for a bullpen spot on the Mets' Opening Day roster.
