Coming up, we're going to talk to Eric Longinghagen of Fangraphs, and we're going to get his thoughts on the Phillies Farm System. He has his top 30 prospects list out. And so we're going to talk to him about a very

0:22.1

interesting list, some of the orders that he has some of these Phillies prospects in, including a very

0:27.9

interesting ranking of Justin Crawford. So we're going to take a deep dive into that. We're going to

0:32.1

roll up the sleeves here on this episode of the podcast, and we're going to talk some prospects

0:35.8

on this episode of hit and season.

about prospects here over these last few weeks because just about every outlet is releasing

1:26.8

their top 100 prospects

and each team's top 10, 20, 30, or whatever.

1:31.6

And one of the ones I always keep an eye out for is from Eric Long & Hagan over at Fangraves
