The depleted (or maybe just well-spent) Phillies farm system has provided an opportunity for a few mid-level prospects who can now break into the top levels, and pitcher Trevor May is one of those who will be getting a lot more attention in the near future. May brings three good pitches to the plate every time out, and he's already had some pretty stunning success at low levels of minor league ball. He stumbled a bit when faced with high-A batters last year, but that sort of adjustment period is common, and it shouldn't scare the Phillies away from what remains a very solid and still-developing athlete. May's fastball is a standard 92-94 offering with heavy sink, and his secondary pitches (a hammer curve and a straight change) are almost ready for more advanced hitters. He's a pitcher to watch in 2012, though any meaningful big-league effectiveness is still a year or two away. Not that the Phillies are exactly in dire need of arms, anyway.
