Sorry was looking at his minors stats all together for 2022  (A-AA-AAA)  Either way still decent for a guy who can't hold any base runner ever.

[HaloNArizona]

According to Fangraphs at the start of the year for the Phillies...

Moniak was the #22 prospect

Sanchez was the #29 prospect .

 

22. Mickey Moniak, CF

Video

Drafted: 1st Round, 2016 from La Costa Canyon HS (CA) (PHI)

Age	23.7	Height	6′ 2″	Weight	195	Bat / Thr	L / R	FV	40

Tool Grades (Present/Future)

Hit	Raw Power	Game Power	Run	Fielding	Throw
50/50	45/45	30/35	55/55	50/50	50

While it’s typical for prospects’ numbers to spike during their time at hitter-friendly Double-A Reading, Moniak’s numbers have done the opposite. He hit more homers in fewer games at Triple-A than he had in 2019 at Double-A, despite having left Reading’s hitter-friendly confines, which could lend credibility to his having sustainably addressed his previous shortage of in-game power. Moniak spent the bulk of 2021 at Triple-A but showed up on the big-league roster for several short stints throughout the year. His cumulative performance there left a lot to be desired. In his 37 major league plate appearances, he got only three hits – two singles and a home run – and struck out 43.2% of the time. If he can maintain the boost in power and tap back into his feel for contact, he’ll slot nicely into the bottom of the Phillies lineup as a lefty-hitting fourth outfielder, but it looks like the entire industry whiffed on projecting Moniak’s hit tool.

 

29. Jadiel Sanchez, RF

Drafted: 12th Round, 2019 from Escuela Natividad Rodriguez Gonzalez (PR) (PHI)

Age	20.7	Height	6′ 2″	Weight	185	Bat / Thr	S / R	FV	35+

Tool Grades (Present/Future)

Hit	Raw Power	Game Power	Run	Fielding	Throw
30/50	35/45	30/40	50/50	30/55	55

The switch-hitting Sanchez has two simple, good-looking swings, he’s tough to beat in the strike zone, and he can sneak up on you with decent pop to his pull side. Early statistical returns (just 28 games in 2021) indicate he may also have plus plate discipline, as both his walk and strikeout rate was better than the Low-A average, though the sample is quite small (because of the strike-calling situation in Southeast, it’s a helpful rule of thumb to comp K%/BB% to league averages rather than the kinds of rates you’re used to seeing baseball-wide). Sanchez slashed .297/.373/.446 over the course of July until a COVID outbreak in the Clearwater training facility resulted in the cancellation of a handful of games. Shortly thereafter came an IL stint, effectively ending Sanchez’s season. He picked up reps in the Puerto RIcan Winter League, where his surface-level performance was poor, but he looked pretty good from a scouting standpoint. There aren’t big tools here, but Sanchez is a well-rounded young player with a very short supporting statistical track record.

lol at this board thinking you are going to get a ton of value for 8 weeks of decent but not great Syndergaard. 

If Perry really likes Syndergaard then they can resign him in the off season

the return for Jose Quintana was probably better.  Do we get anything for having him last year?

ANGELS ACQUIRE

Mickey Moniak, OF
Age: 24

In 2017, the Phillies had the No. 1 overall pick. They spent it on Moniak, who has not lived up to that draft slot. He’s bounced from Triple-A to the big leagues over the past three seasons, accumulating 93 at-bats in that time. He showed up to spring training stronger this year, and produced exit velocities up to 114 mph, but a broken hand stunted his progress. He returned to the big leagues in late June before being optioned back to Triple-A in mid July. Now, the California native gets a change of scenery and the hope that the Angels can unlock the potential he showed as an amateur.

Jadiel Sanchez, OF
Age: 21

The Phillies drafted Sanchez out of Puerto Rico in the 12th round of the 2019 draft. He used the lost 2020 pandemic season to re-make his body and showed up noticeably stronger heading into 2021. He missed time in 2021 due to injury and is currently on a rehab assignment for an injury sustained this season. At his best, he makes loud contact from both sides of the plate and can recognize spin. His strong throwing arm makes him best suited for right field in the long run.

So they plan on converting one of these guys into a pitcher?

So who came up with 'Minassian' ? You, or @Angel Oracle?

It was an unintentional misspelling.  I no longer try to be rude on purpose.
