As we prepare to be buried in several feet of snow, it was a pleasant surprise to see a press release from the Phillies on Friday afternoon with the names of 27 non-roster invitees. There were 26 players announced a year ago, a week earlier than this year, on January 14th.

Here's a look at the 27 non-roster invitees, their 2025 organizations and an example of a recently released mainstream baseball card. Phillies' management has already announced their intention to give Justin Crawford every opportunity to win the starting center fielder's job.
