Marceaux

Marceaux, 23, was a third-round selection of the Angels from the 2021 draft class. He has struggled in his fist exposure to Double-A Rocket City this season -- posting a 4.88 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and a 45/19 K/BB ratio across 59 innings of work through his first 12 starts. He’ll add rotation depth in the upper minors for the Mets.

Marceaux scattered four hits, and walked one with six strikeouts. The right-hander has enjoyed a solid first professional season with the Dust Devils, and improves his K/BB ratio to 54/13 with a 3.23 ERA over 64 innings in 13 starts. A third-round pick out of LSU, Marceaux doesn’t have an obvious out pitch, but there are three above-average secondary offerings that help a low 90s fastball play up, as does his ability to command those four pitches. He’s more high-ceiling than high-floor, but it’s easy to see Marceaux being a solid -- if unspectacular -- part of a rotation.
