Francisco Morales, a right-handed pitcher, has emerged as not only one of the Phillies’ greatest prospects but also one of the best young arms in baseball.

The Venezuela native was signed by the Phillies in 2016 at the age of 16 for a reported $900,000 and played in the Florida Instructional League that year.

The following year, he made his regular-season minor league debut with the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League Phillies, earning a 3-2 record in 10 games with a 3.05 ERA, a.225 batting average against, and a 9.6 K/9 rate (nine starts).

The 6-foot-4, 185-pounder was promoted to the Class A short-season New York-Penn League in 2018. Morales had a 4-5 record with a 5.27 ERA, a.244 batting average against, and a 10.9 K/9 rate in 13 starts for Williamsport.

Morales finished his regular season with five strong starts, posting a 2.91 ERA in the process.

He also had a career-high 11 strikeouts in a six-inning win over State College on August 21 at home.

In 27 appearances with the Class A Lakewood BlueClaws in 2019, the promising pitcher went 1-8 with a save, a 3.82 ERA, a.226 batting average against, and a 12.0 K/9 mark.

The 22-year-old’s includes a 95-96 mph fastball, a fantastic slider that dips down and away from right-handed batters, and a greatly improved change up.

Morales uses that menu to force the opposition to take a number of swings and misses.
