Over the course of the offseason, I took some time to reflect and review upon individual seasons of players that I’ve been watching for quite some time, and tried to outline a few lesser-known guys that I believe are going to see some big numbers this year.
Come mid-season, I would not be surprised to see each and every one of these players on most, if not all, ‘Phillies Top Prospects’ lists. For now, most of them linger below the Top 20, but that will surely change should the cards run in their favor.

Vierling’s 2018 flew under the radar, surprisingly.
