The Phillies' (hopeful) shortstop of the future, J.P. Crawford, was promoted to Double-A Reading on Friday night after tearing up Class-A Advanced ball in Clearwater.
The 20-year-old Crawford, the Phillies' top prospect and top draft pick in the 2013 MLB Draft, had hit .392 with a .489 OBP in 21 games for Clearwater this season.
Crawford will now join quite a few other highly ranked Phillies prospects with Reading, as the Phillies' future rebuild takes one more small step forward.
