Even if you haven’t been paying attention to the Phillies’ minor league system, you’ve still probably heard of Alec Bohm. The Phils’ top prospect, taken third overall in last year’s amateur draft, has been dominating the minor league circuit so far in 2019.
Bohm’s 2018 campaign, his first in professional ball, was less than stellar as he struggled to find his footing. In 40 games split between the Gulf Coast League and Class-A Short Season Williamsport, he had just 35 hits and slashed .252/.335/.324.
2019 is already a much better season for Bohm.
