The Mets signed Carlos Gomez on July 27, 2002 out of his hometown of Santiago, Dominican Republic. Gomez is regarded as one of the top prospects in the organization, blessed with blinding speed, a great arm, and raw power. The Mets accelerated his progress through the system by having him skip high-A ball and move directly to Double-A. He was added to the 40-man roster in November, 2006 to protect him from the Rule V Draft. Gomez was named the Mets 3rd best prospect in 2007 by BA. They also gave him several other awards, including, fastest baserunner, best athlete, best defensive outfielder and best outfield arm in the organization. Carlos was called up for his first Major League appearance with the Mets on May 13th, 2007.
