4 under the radar Phillies prospects named Organization All-Stars by MLB Pipeline
By Matt Dargan
Rob Terranova of MLB Pipeline has released his list of minor league All-Stars in the Philadelphia Phillies farm system, and a few promising young names are worthy of that honor. With the Major League club currently waiting for the free agent market to thaw in what has been a quiet Hot Stove this offseason, some of these prospects could be contributing to the big club soon or be used as trade bait.
With a farm system ranked 23rd by MLB Pipeline last season, the Phillies are still trying to add good young talent through the MLB draft and the international signing process. In July, the Phillies selected Aidan Miller, a power-hitting high school third baseman, with the 27th overall pick in the draft.
In an attempt to rejuvenate the system, the Phillies recently signed 17-year-old Cuban shortstop Denilson Águila and three other youngsters from the Dominican Republic as international free agents.
Under the radar prospects to watch in 2024
If Terranova's list is any indication, many of the top prospects in the Phillies system are developing at a healthy pace. It's encouraging to see new names enter the discussion, as some of these are young players many Phillies fans are probably not familiar with yet.
Some of the players chosen by MLB Pipeline are a little too old to be considered prospects at this point, but that doesn't mean they won't make an impact in 2024. Let's take a look at four under-the-radar prospects to keep an eye on next season.
