The New York Mets have made a bold move in the MLB Draft by selecting Mitch Voit, a two-way talent from Michigan, with their first pick. Voit, a second baseman and pitcher, was signed for $1.75 million, under his slot value of $2.569 million. Comparisons have already been drawn to Jake Cronenworth of the Padres, highlighting Voit's impressive ability as a hitter and pitcher. The Mets are not restricting Voit to just one position, indicating they value his versatility. This decision opens up multiple paths for Voit, potentially increasing his chances of success in the majors.
