Mets reliever and 26th-ranked prospect Grant Hartwig, who was undrafted and out of baseball less than two years ago, is on for his Major League debut in Houston. His parents and girlfriend are in attendance.

Less than two years after signing with the Mets as an undrafted free agent, Grant Hartwig has made it to the majors, sharing a clubhouse with the likes of Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer (the aces of the Tigers teams he rooted for growing up).
