Mets prospect Mike Vasil earned a spot in the 2023 All-Star Futures Game.

Monday's announcement included Vasil, the 23-year-old RHP, among the National League Team's roster.

Vasil -- the Mets' No. 8 prospect, according to MLB.com -- has split this season between Double-A Binghamton and Triple-A Syracuse.

Since his June 12 promotion to Syracuse, he is 0-1 through two starts and has allowed nine runs on seven hits in 6.2 IP.

Over 10 starts at the Double-A level this season, Vasil went 1-2 with a 3.71 ERA and 0.84 WHIP in 51 IP.

The Mets selected Vasil, from the University of Virginia, with an eighth-round pick in the 2021 MLB Draft.

The Futures Game -- a seven-inning showcase -- is next Saturday, July 8, at 7 p.m. ET from Seattle's T-Mobile Park.
