Phillies lock up Kingery with six-year contract

The Philadelphia Phillies have signed top prospect Scott Kingery to a six-year contract through the 2023 season.

The deal, which was announced Sunday, includes club options for the 2024, 2025 and 2026 seasons. According to multiple reports, the contract includes $24 million guaranteed.

FanRag Sports first reported the value of the contract.

Kingery, who recently was rated by ESPN's Keith Law as the No. 33 overall prospect in baseball, is batting .392 with four home runs this spring as he competes for a spot on the Phillies' major league roster.

According to multiple reports, Kingery will make the Phillies' 25-man roster to start the season and likely will serve in a super utility role, playing multiple positions.
