Vladi is 19 years old and listed at 6-foot-2 and 220 pounds.
He has played two seasons for the Mets' team in the Dominican Summer League and struggled.
Across 72 games in two seasons, Vladi has hit.210 with a miserable.285 slugging percentage.
In the two seasons, Vladi had a total of seven doubles, three triples and one home run.
Maybe the only bright spot on his stat sheet was being 6-for-6 stealing bases.
If Vladi wants to continue his baseball career, it'll have to happen in a new organization.
