Phillies Minor Update: How the top prospects are faring

This will be my first of 3-4 prospect updates throughout the season. I did my top-10 list prior to the season, and will re-rank players at my next update, but this is just a review of which prospects are playing well and which are disappointing. The Phillies have an improving system and probably the deepest system they’ve had in some time (thanks, Pat Gillick!). I’ve reviewed 17 players here, and I think there is a good chance we’ll see most of them in the majors at some point. Please feel free to ask any questions about these players as a kept the write-ups short so I could include all the guys I think are important. It should be noted that several high picks in the 2008 draft (Anthony Hewitt, Trevor May, Jared Cosart and Colby Shreve) have not played yet this season due to injury or the Phillies thinking they aren’t quite ready for Lakewood yet. We'll start with Dominic Brown...
