PN Interview: Shortstop Prospect Tyler Greene

Drafted in the 11th round last year out of West Boca Raton Community High School, shortstop Tyler Greene wasted no time signing with the Phillies, to begin his pro career. The righty hitting 19-year-old has been praised by those within the system for his athleticism and his quick bat.

In his first pro season in 2011, Greene posted a .276 batting average with 6 doubles, 4 RBI and 5 steals in 17 games for the Gulf Coast League Phillies.

Through 10 games this season with the Class A Lakewood BlueClaws, Greene is sporting a .206 average with 4 doubles, a homer and 4 RBI.

Recently, I spoke with Tyler about being drafted last year, about his manager Mickey Morandini, about the other Tyler Greene’s and more. Check out the media player below to listen to the full interview.
