Syracuse, N.Y. -- Syracuse Mets outfielder Khalil Lee has been named a 2021 Triple-A East League All-Star.
Lee is Syracuse’s first postseason All-Star since shortstop Trea Turner in 2016. Votes were cast by league broadcasters, Minor League Baseball executives, and select members of the media.
Lee played in 102 games for Syracuse in 2021, hitting .274 with 37 RBIs, 14 home runs, 20 doubles, and two triples. The 23-year-old led the league with a .451 on-base percentage, ranked second in the league with 71 walks, had the fourth-best on-base plus slugging percentage (OPS) at .951, ranked seventh with 67 runs scored, and finished 11th with a .500 slugging percentage.
Lee set a Syracuse franchise record with his .451 on-base percentage. The previous record was held by Otto Velez, who had a .450 on-base percentage in 1973. Lee’s .451 on-base percentage is also the highest among all full-season minor league players with enough plate appearances to qualify for league leaderboards.
Lee is the eighth-ranked prospect in the New York Mets’ organization, according to MLB Pipeline. He made his major league debut on May 17 with the New York Mets at Atlanta and had his first MLB hit and RBI with a run-producing double on May 21 at Miami.
