Mets prospect LHP Blake Taylor had the beginning of his season delayed due to elbow problems during spring training.

After a brief rehab assignment with the GCL Mets, Taylor made three appearances and two starts for the Brooklyn Cyclones, allowing just a run in nine innings.

But, those will be the last pitches he throws quite possibly until 2017.

Taylor recently underwent Tommy John Surgery on his left elbow, and will be out at least a year as he begins the long recovery process back, according to Stuart Johnson of the Brooklyn Cyclones.

Taylor was acquired from the Pirates for Ike Davis in April, 2014. He is the Mets 22nd best prospect, according to MLB.com.

    He was acquired for Ike Davis, not Byrd and Buck.
