Aidan Miller, INF<\/p>\n
Miller entered 2026 as the Phillies\u2019 top-ranked position-player prospect, but a back injury kept him out until September and required surgery in June.<\/p>\n
He returned to play four regular-season games between the Florida Complex League and Double-A Reading, going 4-for-12 with three doubles, two walks and two RBIs. Miller remained with Reading during its run to the Eastern League championship and started all four playoff games at third base, his first professional action at the position.<\/p>\n
Miller was originally assigned to the Arizona Fall League in 2025 but did not play because of his back. He has started at third base and designated hitter through his first two games this fall.<\/p>\n
He opened the Fall League with one hit and two walks against Scottsdale. Miller followed by reaching base five times against Glendale, going 2-for-3 with two walks and a hit by pitch.<\/p>\n
Aroon Escobar, INF<\/p>\n
Escobar spent the entire 2026 season with Reading, where he hit .230 with a .332 on-base percentage and .347 slugging percentage in 132 games. He finished with 12 home runs, 17 doubles, 69 RBIs and 27 stolen bases.<\/p>\n
His production improved late in the season. Escobar hit .372 with three home runs and 11 RBIs over 12 games in September.<\/p>\n
Escobar is eligible for the Rule 5 draft this offseason. The Phillies must add him to their 40-man roster to prevent another organization from selecting him.<\/p>\n
He went 1-for-4 with a walk in his Fall League debut before going hitless in four at-bats against Salt River.<\/p>\n
Dante Nori, OF<\/p>\n
Nori is the only member of this year\u2019s Phillies group who also played in the 2025 Arizona Fall League.<\/p>\n
The Phillies\u2019 2024 first-round selection was limited to 67 games with Reading this season because of a stress fracture in his hip. He hit .244 with a .318 on-base percentage and .360 slugging percentage, recording three home runs, five triples, 13 doubles, 26 RBIs and 17 stolen bases.<\/p>\n
Nori also represented Italy in the World Baseball Classic before beginning his minor-league season.<\/p>\n
He opened the Fall League by going 2-for-5 with a triple, one RBI and one run scored against Scottsdale. He went hitless in five at-bats in his second game.<\/p>\n
Kehden Hettiger, C\/1B<\/p>\n
Hettiger played 61 games for Reading in 2026, hitting .191 with a .317 on-base percentage and .348 slugging percentage. He recorded eight home runs, eight doubles and 20 RBIs.<\/p>\n
The left-handed-hitting catcher missed time with knee injuries during the season. He did not play during August before returning to Reading in September.<\/p>\n
Hettiger threw out 24 percent of attempted base stealers during the regular season.<\/p>\n
He has three hits and two walks through his first two Fall League games. Two of his three hits have been doubles.<\/p>\n
Luke Davis, C\/1B<\/p>\n
Davis is the lone Phillies player not playing for Surprise. Scottsdale needed another catcher, so Davis was assigned to the Scorpions while the other nine Phillies prospects joined the Saguaros.<\/p>\n
Davis hit .201 with a .367 on-base percentage and .336 slugging percentage over 188 plate appearances in 2026. He finished with four home runs and 23 RBIs while playing primarily for High-A Jersey Shore.<\/p>\n
He drew 39 walks against 51 strikeouts during the regular season.<\/p>\n
Davis walked in his lone plate appearance in Scottsdale\u2019s opener against Surprise. He then went 0-for-3 with two walks against Mesa. He is hitless in three at-bats but has reached base three times through two games.<\/p>\n
Keegan Batka, RHP<\/p>\n
Batka began the season with Single-A Clearwater and finished it with Reading.<\/p>\n
The 24-year-old made 35 relief appearances across three levels, posting a 3.14 ERA and 1.10 WHIP over 51\u2154 innings. He struck out 69 batters, walked 17 and recorded seven saves.<\/p>\n
Batka began the season with 12\u2153 consecutive scoreless innings over his first 10 appearances with Clearwater. He later pitched 24 games for Jersey Shore before making one appearance for Reading.<\/p>\n
He allowed two earned runs on two hits over one inning in his Fall League debut.<\/p>\n
Ryan Dromboski, RHP<\/p>\n
Dromboski made 18 starts and one relief appearance between Jersey Shore and Reading. He went 3-10 with a 5.56 ERA and 1.44 WHIP over 81 innings, striking out 80 and walking 40.<\/p>\n
The South Jersey native spent most of the season with Jersey Shore, where he posted a 4.89 ERA over 73\u2154 innings. He allowed four earned runs over his final 20\u2154 innings at that level.<\/p>\n
Dromboski made two starts for Reading in September. He struck out eight over five innings in his second Double-A start.<\/p>\n
He worked 3\u2153 scoreless innings in his Fall League debut, allowing three hits and one walk while striking out one.<\/p>\n
Estibenzon Jim\u00e9nez, RHP<\/p>\n
Jim\u00e9nez pitched exclusively as a reliever in 2026 after making 60 starts over his first five professional seasons.<\/p>\n
The right-hander went 7-0 with a 2.38 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 35 appearances across four levels. He struck out 51 batters over 45\u2153 innings and converted all seven of his save opportunities.<\/p>\n
Jim\u00e9nez spent most of the season with Reading, where he posted a 2.84 ERA and recorded seven saves in 28 appearances.<\/p>\n
He earned the save in his first Fall League appearance, striking out two during a perfect ninth inning against Salt River.<\/p>\n
Kevin Warunek, LHP<\/p>\n
Warunek made 17 appearances across four levels during a season that included multiple stints on the injured list.<\/p>\n
The left-hander went 3-0 with a 3.43 ERA and 1.48 WHIP over 21 innings. He struck out 26 and walked 12.<\/p>\n
Warunek pitched for the Florida Complex League Phillies, Clearwater, Jersey Shore and Reading. His final regular-season appearance came with Reading on Sept. 12, when he worked one scoreless inning.<\/p>\n
He allowed one earned run on two hits over one inning in his Fall League debut against Salt River. Warunek struck out one and did not issue a walk.<\/p>\n
Andrew Walling, LHP<\/p>\n
Walling replaced Jose Pe\u00f1a Jr. on the Surprise roster. Pe\u00f1a remained at the Phillies\u2019 complex in Clearwater while recovering from elbow discomfort.<\/p>\n
Walling was limited to 11 appearances with Triple-A Lehigh Valley after suffering an elbow sprain. He went 0-1 with a 9.58 ERA and one save over 10\u2153 innings. The left-hander struck out 16 and walked 15.<\/p>\n
Walling was placed on the injured list in May and transferred to the 60-day injured list in July.<\/p>\n
He allowed one hit over a scoreless inning in his Fall League debut against Salt River. Walling struck out one, did not issue a walk and needed 12 pitches to complete the inning.<\/p>\n
