\n The Mets didn\u2019t have to look far for one of their undrafted free agent signings.<\/p>\n

Among the players they picked up was Joe Suozzi, a senior from Boston College who grew up in Glen Cove and whose father, Tom, is a congressman who represents parts of Long Island and Queens.<\/p>\n

The outfielder hardly took a traditional path to the pros.<\/p>\n

After graduating from Chaminade HS, Suozzi, went to BC without a scholarship and didn\u2019t play for the Eagles his freshman year.<\/p>\n

As a sophomore, Suozzi walked on to the team and earned a spot.<\/p>\n

In his junior year, Suozzi hit .282 with three homers in 48 game<\/a>s and then got off to a fast start this year. He was hitting .414 with a homer and 16 RBIs in 15 games as a senior before the NCAA season was cut short because of the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n

The 6-foot-2 Suozzi also was named a co-captain before his senior season and had been pegged as a potential mid-round selection prior to the season\u2019s early ending. The move has not been announced by the Mets.<\/p>\n

Because of the pandemic, Major League Baseball cut last week\u2019s amateur draft to just five rounds. Beginning Sunday, teams could sign an unlimited number of players for a maximum of $20,000 each.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
