Philadelphia Phillies top prospects Andrew Painter and Justin Crawford have officially graduated to MLB.

Painter and Crawford are officially on the Phillies' initial Opening Day roster, released Wednesday afternoon.

According to the Phillies' website, Painter will wear No. 24 and Crawford, No. 2.

Some recent Phillies who wore No. 24: Darick Hall (2023), Roman Quinn (2016-22), Darnell Sweeney (2015), Grady Sizemore (2014-15) and Ty Wiggington (2012).

Some recent Phils who wore No. 2: Harrison Bader (2025), Kody Clemens (2024-25), Josh Harrison (2023), Jean Segura (2019-22), J.P. Crawford (2017-2018), Tyler Goeddel (2016), Chase d'Arnaud (2015) and Ben Revere (2013-15).

The Phils selected Crawford's contract, adding him to the 40-man roster. The club also selected infielder Christian Cairo's contract and optioned him to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The team designated catcher Garrett Stubbs for assignment.

The Phillies open the season Thursday against the Texas Rangers, but had to submit their roster Wednesday since the MLB season begins tonight. The New York Yankees and San Francisco Giants open the campaign on Netflix.

Cristopher Sánchez, fresh off a new six-year contract, will make his first Opening Day start.
