Of late Class A Lakewood has been led by pitcher Kyle Glogoski.  The native New Zealander has a 3-1 record with a 0.96 ERA, a .123 batting average against and a 15.9 K/9 mark in six appearances.  Last weekend I interview the promising 20-year-old.  Click here to listen to that interview.

Corner infielder Luke Miller has performed very well in seven games since joining the BlueClaws.  The 22-year-old has tallied a .308 batting average with a double, a home run, four RBI and four walks.  Miller, 22, was the Phillies' 22nd round draft choice last year out of Indiana. 

Left-hander Ethan Lindow had a remarkable May, posting a 2.96 ERA and a .221 batting average against in six appearances.  The Georgia native was a 5th round draft pick in 2017 by the Phillies.  Overall with the BlueClaws, the 20-year-old sports a 1-2 record with a 3.27 ERA and a 9.8 K/9 mark in 11 games.

Switch-hitting catcher Rafael Marchan has been a reliable offensive contributor this year for Lakewood.  The 20-year-old Venezuela native has notched a .306 average with eight doubles and seven RBI in 23 games. 


For Class A Advanced Clearwater, last year's first round draft pick Alec Bohm has been impressive since joining the team.  The 22-year-old righty batter is fresh off a 10-game hitting streak and is batting .325 with eight doubles, two triples, three home runs in 29 games.  Bohm has played both first base and third base for the Threshers.

Center fielder Simon Muzziotti has been solid on offense with the Threshers as well.  Through 39 games, the 20-year-old lefty batter sports s .306 average with a pair of round trippers, 15 RBI and seven steals.  Heading into Sunday, the Venezuela native had notched six multi-hit games in his last 10 contests.

Lefty starter Damon Jones has remained dominant for the Threshers, collecting a 3-3 record with a 1.37 ERA, a .173 batting average against along with a league-best 80 K's in 10 starts.  Jones was an 18th round pick in 2017 out of Washington State.  I recently interviewed the 24-year-old.  Click here to read that post.

With Double-A Reading, outfielder Mickey Moniak has turned things on, posting a .301 batting average in 29 games since the end of April.  Moniak, a 21-year-old lefty batter, was the top overall draft pick in 2016.

Righty reliever Addison Russ has been very solid for Reading.  The 24-year-old boasts a 1.66 ERA with seven saves in nine chances and a 12.9 K/9 mark in 22 outings in the Eastern League.  Russ was the Phils' 19th round pick in 2017 out of Houston Baptist.

Right-handed pitching prospect Adonis Medina  has strung together three good outings, going 3-0 with a 1.15 ERA in those starts with Reading.  Overall, the Dominican Republic native has a 3-2 record with a 3.92 ERA, a .243 opponents' average and a 6.4 K/9 mark in nine starts this season for the Fightin Phils.


At the Triple-A level catcher Deivi Grullon has continued his exciting season, as he ranks fourth in the league in hitting with a .344 average.  Additionally, the 23-year-old righty batter has nine homers with 38 RBI in 43 games with the IronPigs.

Outfielder Lane Adams leads the IronPigs in homers with 11.  The 29-year-old right-handed hitter has a .285/.344/.553 slash line in 47 games this season.  Adams signed as a free agent with the Phillies over the off-season.

All I Want For "the Holidays" is the MLB Network

Ladies and gentlemen, there are 5 days left till Hannukah, 9 days left till Christmas and 16 days left till the premiere of the MLB Network. It's about time. Those of you that enjoy MLB.com's original programming, it may be a while till your favorite hosts appear on The MLB Network. The announced TV schedule is not similar to MLB.com's online schedule. MLB.com's studios are in NYC, and the MLB Network's studios will be in Secaucus NJ...so that's another bump in the road. Cross overs, while possible, might be less likely. The great internet programming on MLB.com includes morning and afternoon talk shows, a midday fantasy advice call-in show, a lunch time talk show and variety half hour formatted show, and of course the nightly wrap up, as well as other original programming that focuses more on the history of the game. MLB.com's programming started as streaming radio shows, then upgraded to a visual medium when video feeds were provided for the same sho...

Watch Out For the Bat Boy

Stop ice grillin' the Phillies players, bat boy. I am watching YOU. I don't know what is on your mind, bat boy, but don't even think about doing something slick. You might wear the Phillies' uniform, but it is clear that you are a Yankees fan. It's all over your pale little "I wanna grow up to be like the Robert De Niro character in The Fan " face. The World Champs should be cautious around this kid. He could be dangerous. ------------------------------------------- Follow PhoulBallz.com on Twitter HERE !

Hockey Taking Over CBP

The takeover has begun. As the holiday season approaches and winter becomes more imminent, January 2nd, the date of this season's NHL Winter Classic draws nearer. In 2012, Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park will play host to the annual regular season hockey contest that is broadcast on national television. The ballpark is otherwise home to Major League Baseball's Phillies. In the upcoming game, the Flyers will take on New York Rangers. It will be New York's first Winter Classic appearance, while the Flyers, who lost at Boston in 2010, will be seeing action in the annual event for the second time. This will mark the fifth year for the NHL's premiere regular season contest, which first took place in 2008 at Buffalo's Ralph Wilson Stadium, home of the NFL's Bills. The process to convert the baseball playing field into an ice rink, in time for the week of hockey events set to take place at CBP, began this week. In addition to the January 2nd regular season...
