Here’s some cool news: Four farmhands are going to play at the MLB Futures Game during All-Star weekend in the Bronx.
The U.S.A roster will include:
- OF Greg Golson (who is currently injured)
- C Lou Marson
- SS Jason Donald
The World roster will include:
- SP Carlos Carrasco
Antonio Bastardo was also named to the World roster but replaced because of injury. The five players means, at first glance, the Phils had the most representatives selected. A good sign the farm system has improved recently.

Reported that Bastardo is on the World team as well.
I thought our system doesnt have enough prospects to get a frontline SP. Fuck that shit.
