Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Nick Maton (Ron Chenoy/USA TODAY Sports)
Before the 2021 season, Philadelphia Phillies infielder prospect Nick Maton has largely gone “under the radar.”
The 24-year-old was selected in the seventh round of the 2017 amateur draft out of Lincoln Land Community College in Illinois and is ranked 19th on the most recent top 30 Phillies prospects — trailing fellow infielders Bryson Stott, SS; Luis Garcia, SS; Casey Martin, SS; Kendall Simmons, 2B/SS/3B; and Jamari Baylor, SS.
