Justin Crawford to get opportunity in center field for Phillies

Dave Dombrowski confirmed Tuesday that the Phillies’ plan is to go forward with Justin Crawford in center.

Fantasy Impact

Crawford slashed .334/.411/.452 with 46 steals in Triple-A last season. He will likely enter next year in a platoon in center field with Brandon Marsh and either Otto Kemp or Weston Wilson. "If you're going to give Crawford an opportunity, you've got to give it to him," Dombrowski said. "And that's where we are. We're going to give him an opportunity and have him play a lot."
