Sammy Stafura Returns Home to Mets | New York Mets News

Sammy Stafura, the 21-year-old phenom from Westchester County, just got traded to the Mets — his third organization in a year — after a wild ride that began with a tweet and ended with him heading home to Citi Field. A lifelong Mets fan who idolized David Wright and José Reyes, Stafura is now their No. 11 prospect and called it “a dream come true.” Despite sitting out games with a minor hamstring issue amid swirling trade rumors, he’s been crushing it since returning — batting over .300 with an elite OPS and 14 homers in just 18 July games. The Mets threw down $8 million to land him, trading for reliever Luke Weaver. With a killer mental game and a history of bouncing around teams, Stafura sees this as validation — and now he’s back where he belongs, ready to dominate.
