look in 12 team drafts he might be worth a 19-25 round pick. I'm a met fan and I'm hoping, but look at Puljos, he was a prospect but not high on the radar. Now look at him 1st round pick in most drafts..
LoL, only a Met fan would like to pretend Wigginton could be another Pujols. I've already read Met fans thinking Reyes will make an A-Rod type impact at shortstop for them.
Ty isnt a highly rated prospect. He will be lucky if he does play everyday, as he projects to a utility man. Burroughs/Blalock actually hit through the minors, and both are 3 years younger.

Although I agree that Wiggington isn't a great choice, he's at least a nice backup. There's no competition for the 3b job in NY and he hit 302 last year in triple-A. More importantly, his strikeout to walk ratio was 50-43, which shows good dicipline. I think that he could turn into a Jeff Cirillo type player, if he's lucky.
