C Jeferson Quero headlines the four Brewers prospects named to MLB’s Top 100
MLB.com just released this year’s iteration of their annual top 30 prospect rankings for each club. Headlining the list for Milwaukee is C Jeferson Quero, MLB’s No. 47 overall prospect. Quero is joined by Jesus Made (No. 55), Cooper Pratt (No. 57), and Jacob Misiorowski (No. 99) as the only Brewers prospects to make MLB’s top 100 list.
Rounding out the top 10 for Milwaukee are Mike Boeve, Tyler Black, Yophery Rodriguez, Eric Bitonti, Luke Adams, and Luis Peña. Out of the top 10 prospects, only Quero, Black and Misiorowski are expected to get the call-up to the big leagues this year. Cooper Pratt, who’s had a torrid start to spring training, might end up joining them sometime later in the season if he can keep raking in the upper levels of the minors.
The youngest prospects to appear on the list — all 17 years old — are Made, Kenny Fenelon, and Brailyn Antunez. Much ado has been made about Made, who shot up the Brewers prospect rankings after absolutely raking in the Dominican Summer League. He has a shot at being a top-10 overall prospect next year if he keeps developing. Fenelon and Antunez, ranked at 26 and 29 respectively, are the top two Brewers prospects in this year’s international free agency class. A brief profile on both players can be found here.
The oldest prospect to appear on the list, at 27 years old, is utilityman Isaac Collins. This is also Collins’ first appearance on the list. He’s been in the Brewers’ system since he was acquired in the minor league version of the Rule 5 Draft after the 2022 season. He had a late breakout last year, slashing .273/.386/.475 with 14 homers and 24 steals in 113 games at Triple-A Nashville. Collins has been playing a fair amount in spring training but has only recorded one hit so far in 12 at-bats.
The biggest riser is Made, who was unranked at the start of last year. The biggest faller is Eric Brown Jr., last year’s team No. 12 prospect. Brown, taken in the first round in 2022, missed most of his first season in pro ball. He played 105 games last year but was unable to even clear the Mendoza line, slashing .185/.270/.262 with four home runs. Brown didn’t make the list this year. However, if he can improve on last years’ stats, he still has the talent to end up back in the top half of this list next year.
