News: Spring starters, Blanco, Buchholz, prospects

Good morning! Here’s the news for this morning:

SPRING STARTERS: The Phillies announced starting pitchers for their first three spring training games (Thursday, Friday, Saturday). They are: Mark Leiter Jr., Alec Asher, Adam Morgan.

Leiter is facing the University of Tampa, a game the Phils typically don’t like using big-leaguers for. The big-league starters will start merging into this soon.

DREW IT UP: Jim Salisbury has a profile of Drew Anderson, a highly touted pitching prospect who was named to the 40-man in advance of the Rule 5 Draft.
