Phillies send Stassi, Featherston to Minors
3/13/16: Brock Stassi shows off his quick reflexes on a falling catch of Jorge Mateo's hard line drive up the first-base lineBefore the cancellation the Phillies announced they had had reassigned first baseman Brock Stassi to Minor League camp and optioned infielder Taylor Featherston to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The move leaves 48 players in camp, not including injured outfielder Aaron Altherr and injured left-hander Matt Harrison.
Stassi, 26, hit .240 (6-for-25) with one double, two RBIs, three walks and five strikeouts this spring. Featherston, 26, hit .100 (2-for-20) with one home run, three RBIs, five walks and six strikeouts.
"I'm happy with the way a lot of things went," Stassi said.
