2022 Phuture Phillies Readers’ Vote: #1 Prospect
With baseball at a standstill, only minor league signings being reported, and all possible trade and draft signing scenarios having been dissected ad infinitum, let’s start the Phuture Phillies Readers Top 30 poll.
I decided to NOT use the easier (for me) 90+ prospect poll. We’ll start with 25 names and I’ll add more as we progress. Continue reading 2022 Phuture Phillies Readers’ Vote: #1 Prospect
Open Discussion: Week of December 12, 2021
Day 12 of Mister Manfred’s lockout. No action on the negotiating front. No likelihood of any for a few weeks, it seems. The Phillies did sign a couple more international free agents (one from Cuba) and picked a RHP from the Giants organization during the Rule 5 draft. Continue reading Open Discussion: Week of December 12, 2021
Sixth Annual Phillies Minor League Digest
Looking for a last-minute present for that friend or family member who loves the Phillies and following their prospects? Or, perhaps, a present for yourself?
Results of the 2021 Rule 5 Draft
The 2021 minor league portion of the 2021 Rule 5 draft concluded with no Phillies being selected by the other teams.
The Phillies included 37 protected players on their Lehigh Valley roster. They were entitled to one selection and chose a RHP from the San Francisco organization.
“Protected” Players for the 2021 Rule 5 Draft
The major league portion of the Rule 5 Draft has been postponed indefinitely, but the minor league portion is still being held this week. While we know whom the Phillies protected by adding them to the 40-man roster by the November 19th deadline, we do not know who was added to the Lehigh Valley roster for protection from the minor league portion of the draft. Continue reading “Protected” Players for the 2021 Rule 5 Draft
Updated Roster Information as We Go into Manfred’s Lockout
I’m replacing the earlier roster information article with this updated version. It should be current as we go into the transaction void brought on by a lockout that the MBL decided was necessary. (Yeah, MBL was intentional so that I can use the article “the”.) This will be pinned to the site as a reference in place of the older article. Let me know if you see anything that needs explanation or anything that looks wrong. Continue reading Updated Roster Information as We Go into Manfred’s Lockout

As threatened, Rob Manfred initiated a lockout at 12:01 AM on December 2, 2021, 2 minutes after the 2017-2021 Collective Bargaining Agreement expired. He claimed that the lockout was necessary to move the talks with the Players’ Association forward. On the final day of the CBA, the belligerents met twice. The second meeting lasted about 7 minutes before the owners’ group walked out and left the premises. Sounds like a “lock in” might have been more effective.
