After making the NLCS in two straight seasons, the Phillies still have a bright future coming from the minor leagues.
Usually when a team reaches that point, they have exhausted their farm system with trades or promotions. That is especially true when Dave Dombrowski is the executive in charge as he's famous for trading away prospects in order to make a run.Philadelphia's No. 1 prospect is right-handed pitcher Andrew Painter.
Aidan Miller and Justin Crawford, their top position players, are both just 20 years old. The youngsters are their two most recent first round picks, and both have reached High-A in 2024. Miller has easy plus power and is currently a shortstop, but with both big power and a big arm, it's likely he slides over to third base. Crawford, like his father Carl Crawford, is an elite runner and great defender with a good ability to hit for contact. While he won't hit for power like Miller, he profiles well at the top of the order with above average on-base abilities.A great athlete, Caba is a plus runner and defender who has a good hit tool.
Painter and Abel are close to the Majors. They seem ready to contribute and would slide in nicely at the back end of the rotation behind their All-Stars.
