Where might the Phillies new draft picks rank

A few of us writers were discussing the draft and Ethan popped the question (no, not that one, the titular one), which led to a discussion and this piece.

Where does Wood slot right now in their system…

Anthony Esbensen

Painter, Miller, Escobar, Abel, Wood, Tait, Crawford

Cormican

I’d flip Tait and Escobar, but otherwise, fair

Anthony Esbensen

I want to see the approach at upper levels (and if he sticks at catcher)

Agreed, but the hitting for Escobar is also lower level and Tait is a more valuable position profile

Anthony Esbensen

That’s true

Escobar showed less questions about the hitting approach

Cormican

True, but Aroon is also right of age for the level and Tait is really young for it.
