Phillies call up top prospect Domonic Brown
Domonic Brown - OF - Philadelphia Phillies
July 28, 2010 - 2:50 PM ET
Phillies purchased the contract of OF Domonic Brown from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
After much anticipation, Brown is finally on his way to the big leagues. The 22-year-old outfielder batted .327/.391/.589 with 20 homers, 68 RBI and 17 stolen bases in 343 at-bats between Double-A Reading and Triple-A Lehigh Valley this season, including a .346/.390/.561 batting line since being promoted to the Triple-A level. He was recently ranked as the No. 1 prospect in the sport in Baseball America's midseason list. The Phillies aren't calling him up to sit on the bench, so look for him to start everyday in right field. With his speed and emerging power potential, he is worth grabbing in NL-only and deeper mixed formats.
