steady-contact everyday shortstop with gap power and production
In the 2026 season, Mettam was a reliable, everyday shortstop for Saint Mary’s, starting 59 games and hitting .315 with 69 hits, 9 doubles, 2 triples, 3 home runs, and 30 RBI. His value is built on consistency and bat-to-ball skills rather than pure power, and his 21 multi-hit games show he can carry an offense for stretches. For a team, that profile fits a dependable infield stabilizer who brings contact, enough extra-base pop to matter, and the durability to stay in the lineup.[2]
