TRENTON, NJ-- The Phillies 2017 first round draft selection Adam Haseley is on his way to join the Double-A Reading roster following the Eastern League All-Star break, per a source.

The 22-year-old lefty batting outfielder tallied a .300 average with 13 doubles, five triples, five home runs, 38 RBI and seven stolen bases in 79 games with the Class A Advanced Clearwater Threshers this season.

To date, since turning pro last year, the Virginia product sports a .294/348/.411 slash line in 137 professional games at three levels.

Haseley was the 8th overall pick in last year's MLB amateur draft.

Reading, at 41-47, is in 5th place, 8 1/2 games out of first place in the Eastern League's Eastern Division. They will open the second half of their season on Thursday at home when they host Bowie at 7:15 PM.

Harry Kalas Phorever...

Legendary broadcaster Harry Kalas passed away today. Harry collapsed while preparing to call today's game against the Washington Nationals. So many phans will feel as though we've lost a member of our own families. I feel as though I've lost a part of myself, but Harry enhanced my love of the great sport we call baseball and I will always carry that love, and Harry, in my heart. I've stated on this page before that I consider Harry more of a Phillie than anyone who wears the uniform as an active member of the roster. Harry Kalas was a Phillie. Moreso, Harry Kalas was the Phillies. Please share your thoughts and memories of Harry in the comments section, or send them to PhoulBallz (at) verizon (dot) net.

Ryan Madson is acting questionable

I've seen similar types of "poking fun" entries on other Phillies blogs. When this picture came across my desk today, I figured, "Why not...?" Ryan Madson was out on the town (Manayunk) over the weekend and was photographed acting pretty with a purse slung over his shoulder and being chummy with a friend of mine. Can I really call him a friend, if he's actually my friends' friend , and I only prank called him once? Sure, why the heck not?!
