The process began as last week ended when the club sent top pitching prospects Jake Thompson, Mark Appel, and Zach Eflin back to the minor leagues.
This morning that process continued, and the Grapefruit League games will now get a little less interesting. The Phillies have reassigned their top two prospects, shortstop J.P. Crawford and Nick Williams, to minor league camp. At the same time the team optioned both outfielder Roman Quinn and pitcher Edubray Ramos to the AA Reading Fightin’ Phils roster.
