Hot and Not

On Hot sheet at BaseballAmerica.com Delolis Guerra is ranked the 9th best prospect

9. Deolis Guerra, rhp, low Class A Hagerstown (Mets)
Hope Mets fans enjoyed the show, because Guerra's cheese smelled so good last week: no hits in five innings, though he walked six and struck out six. This 17-year-old has a 1.15 ERA in August and is 6-7, 2.20 overall with just 59 hits allowed in 82 innings.

While Fernando Martinez who I feel will be a future superstar has been icecold since being called up from Hagerstown and was on the The Not so Hot Sheet.

Fernando Martinez, of, high Class A St. Lucie (Mets)
Understand, we come not to bury Martinez . . . he's 17 and playing in the Florida State League. That's incredible, really. But he went 5-for-32 last week and is hitting .200 in the FSL so far (14-for-70). Just don't pencil him into the 2007 lineup in New York as Cliff Floyd's replacement, that's all we're saying. I was out a hagerstown suns double header in early july. Its a fun place to go with a couple great prospects though the team is not great
