Hoskins, 23, is batting .230/.304/.426 with three home runs and 10 RBI through 16 games for Double-A Reading.

Hoskins hit .319 across two levels last season, though it remains to be seen if he will be able to hit for average at the higher levels. He already has 18 strikeouts through 16 games, though he is not afraid to take a walk. Hoskins could be the eventual replacement for Ryan Howard, but that likely will not happen until 2017 at the earliest.
