As reported by SNY's Andy Martino, one scout believes the Mets made the right call in opting for McLean over Sproat, noting that McLean is slightly ahead in his development.

Once adamant that being a two-way player was his destiny, McLean abandoned the bat in favor of the ball before this season. It has resulted in him climbing the prospect rankings, earning a promotion to Triple-A in May and now a call to the big leagues.

Manny Gomez of NJ Advance Media for NJ.com reached out to a rival scout to inquire about Nolan McLean's potential at the MLB level.
