Quick minor league news

The Phillies promoted 2004 first-round pick Greg Golson and lefthanded starter Josh Outman from single-A Clearwater to double-A Reading.

Golson, a 21-year-old centerfielder, was hitting .286 in 98 games and leading the team in a number of offensive categories including home runs (12), RBI (52) and stolen bases (25).

Outman was 10-4 with a 2.45 ERA in 20 games (18 starts). In 117 1/3 innings, he had 117 strikeouts and allowed 54 walks and 104 hits. He will make his AA debut on Saturday against visiting Trenton. On the off chance anybody wants it, 610-375-8469 is the number for Reading tickets.

Baseball America recently ranked Golson as the 10th best prospect in the Phillies farm system and Outman the team's sixth.
