Crawford will open the season at Double-A Reading, Marc Narducci of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Crawford, 21, is the top prospect in the Phillies' minor league system. He hit .265/.354/.407 with five home runs and seven steals in 351 at-bats with Double-A Reading last season. He should see time in Triple-A later this year and could be pushing for a job in the majors as soon as next season.
