A native of the Bronx, Suero was far from a significant addition when he signed with the Mets for $10,000 out of the Dominican Republic in March 2022 at 18 years old, but he’s caught the attention of many in the organization in short order. After two solid Complex-level seasons in the D.R. and Florida, Suero opened 2024 with Single-A St. Lucie and was promoted to High-A Brooklyn after only 25 games, having slashed .265/.390/.434 with a 141 wRC+. He continued to be productive in the South Atlantic League with a .228/.353/.350 line in 87 games to round out his age-20 season.
A little undersized at 5-foot-11, Suero stands out more for his surprising athleticism. He’s at least an above-average runner, flashing plus times out of the box from the right side, and he stole 20 bags across both stops in 2024, fifth-most among Minor League catchers. He was relatively new to catching when he signed, and Suero focused mostly back there in his first two seasons but expanded his defensive resume to first base and left field last year. That has carried into 2025 at Brooklyn and Double-A Binghamton.
Suero runs a simple operation as a hitter, looking calm before unleashing an uppercut swing. That helps him elevate on contact, aiding his pullside power but also leading to a good amount of harmless popups. He chased less at High-A than Single-A but whiffed more against soft stuff. It’s an OBP-driven hitting profile for now, but if he can play multiple premium positions at a high level, his future will only get brighter.
