Gabe Craig News: Fifth-round selection
The Phillies have selected Craig with the 161st overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft.
Craig turned 24 earlier this month and is one of the older real prospects in this draft. His mid-80s slider is at least a plus pitch and has huge sweep. Craig is 6-foot-5, 209 pounds and boasts a low-to-mid-90s fastball. He will likely be fast-tracked as a reliever and has ninth-inning upside.
