A talented and young short-season squad gets set for a new season up north.
It is finally time for short season baseball! The 2015 GCL Phillies were one of the most exciting teams to follow in the system last year and, for the most part, those players have so far been hidden in Extended Spring Training this season. While the Phillies work to sign their '16 draft class, that EST group will form the core of the Williamsport Crosscutters to start the year, and will likely continue to be at the center of the team going forward. The team currently lacks a prospect of the caliber of a Franklyn Kilome like last year, but RHP Adonis Medina is not a bad consolation prize in leading a team heavy on raw, but high-upside, Latin talent.
