Austin Listi: Dumped by Phillies

Listi was released by the Phillies on Thursday, Andersen Pickard of MLBDailyDish.com reports.

Listi was picked 503rd overall in the 2017 draft, but showed some promise in the lower levels of the minors. He was named the top hitter in the Phillies minor-league system in 2017, when he hit .312/.412/.502 across 123 games between High-A and Double-A. However, he stalled out at Triple-A Lehigh Valley in 2021, as he managed only a .221/.299/.274 line across 214 plate appearances.
