We continue our countdown of top prospects here at The Good Phight, counting backwards from 20 to our top prospect.
Jordan Viars, L/L, 18 years old
Viars is a young, big-framed Texas high school outfielder who is likely headed to a corner in pro ball. He’s short to the ball despite his size, and currently peppers both gaps with doubles contact. He was an athletic two-way high schooler who will be a right field dev project in pro ball.
Jay: 20th, Ethan: 20th, Alex: NR
The Phillies drafted Viars in the third round as sort of a cheaper signing since his name didn’t show up much prior to the draft as someone who might go that high.
