Good news for all you Phillies Baseball fans... the Philadelphia Phillies announced that they have reached an agreement with the talented 18 year old high school outfielder, Larry Greene.
Green, who also received a $1 million signing bonus, was selected by the Phillies 39th overall at the 2011 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft, held from June 6 – 8, 2011 in New Jersey.
Greene, a 6 foot 1 inch, 235 pound outfielder, batted .562 this season playing for Berrien County High School in Nashville, Georgia. He also hit 19 home runs, 52 RBIs, and 13 stolen bases to round out a solid season leading up to this year's draft.
We look forward to following Larry Greene as he works his way up the system and plays his first game for the Phillies!
