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.

    yea bastardo is but he wont be there because of his injury. Yea who knows because dominic Brown and adrien cardenas(was on the team last year) are not there and could be.
