Surprising Phillies prospect showing signs of power breakout in early AFL action

Related Topics: Philadelphia Phillies

Last offseason, the Philadelphia Phillies made a puzzling move when they sent international bonus pool money to the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for minor league prospect Dylan Campbell, who they highly regarded. That move may have backfired on the Phillies a bit, as the money helped the Dodgers land Japanese sensation Roki Sasaki.

Sasaki, of course, ended up playing a key closing role for the Dodgers in the playoffs, which ultimately ended the Phillies’ season in the NLDS. However, not all may be lost, as Campbell has begun to show signs of a power breakout in early Arizona Fall League action.
