Tier 2
1. Jeferson Quero, C, 22, Triple-A
Despite missing all but one game in 2024 with a shoulder injury, Quero remains atop Milwaukee’s rankings. As one of the best defense catching prospects in baseball, he has a rocket of an arm and gunned down 68 stolen base attempts between 2022-23. His swing inconsistencies at the plate may improve with age, but he has still flashed good power potential. For the defense alone, he has the makings of a future All-Star catcher. (@aj_greene1015)
2. Jesus Made, SS, 17, Rookie (DSL)
Made is soon to be one of the top prospects in all of baseball (just landed at No. 17 on Baseball America’s new Top 100 prospects list), and if you haven’t bought your stock in Made yet, now is the time to buy. Made obliterated the DSL last year with 21 extra base hits, 28 stolen bases, and a 1.012 OPS. His bat speed is electric, there’s legitimate five tool potential to dream on here at shortstop and he’s likely to follow in the footsteps of other star Brewers international prospects and skip the ACL and head straight to Single-A to start 2025.

3. Jacob Misiorowski, RHP, 22, Triple-A
The Brewers moved Misiorowski into the Triple-A bullpen late last season where he posted a 1.84 ERA and 0.75 WHIP with 19 strikeouts in 14.2 innings. This offseason the Brewers also traded closer Devin Williams. Coincidence? His triple digit fastball and wipeout slider are true weapons, but he struggles with command (currently walking greater than 5 per 9). I wouldn’t rule out a return to the rotation in the future, but his immediate impact looks like it will come out of the pen. (@JMahyfam)
4. Tyler Black, 1B, 24, MLB
I have always been a big fan of Black. After a cup of coffee in the bigs, he hit .258/.374/.429 with 14 home runs and 20 stolen bases back in Triple-A. He profiles to hit .270-.275, with an OBP hovering around .340 with 15ish home runs and 25+ stolen bases. That is a very useful profile, just not a traditional one for a first base, which is where the Brewers seem to prefer him. Dynasty owners would be wise to keep this in mind when considering how he fits their squad. (@JMahyfam)
5. Cooper Pratt, SS, 20, High-A
The steal of the 2023 draft, Pratt lit up the competition in A-ball last year and showcased his hitting ability and speed with a .277 average and 28 stolen bases. The power is continuing to improve here and should get better as he matures into an above-average tool at shortstop. Pratt made it up to Double-A at the end of last year and likely starts back at High-A but Double-A is not out of the question if he continues to hit the ball well. (@dgasper24)
Tier 3
6. Brock Wilken, 3B, 22, Double-A
Wilken is one of my favorite prospects in the game. The 6’4″ 225lb third baseman was a Harwich Mariner for two summers on the Cape, prior to his being drafted in the first round (18th overall) by the Brewers in 2023 (out of Wake Forest, was teammates with A’s Nick Kurtz). The organization started him at High-A for his pro debut, then quickly promoted him to Double-A. Wilken spent all of last season in Biloxi and then got more reps in the Arizona Fall League, where he struggled across 23 games, but put on a monster display in the HR Derby. He does need to make more contact and get on base more to be a certain future Major Leaguer. (@Scotty_Ballgame)
7. Yophery Rodriguez, OF, 19, Single-A
The Brewers aggressively promoted the teenage Rodriguez to Single-A Carolina last year as an 18-year-old, where he held his own with a .250 average and .726 OPS. There’s some present power already with 23 doubles and seven home runs. Rodriguez has impressed the Brewers and there’s a good chance he gets another aggressive assignment as a 19-year-old in High-A in 2025. (@dgasper24)
8. Luke Adams, 3B, 20, High-A
There’s a lot to like about Adams. He has a big, projectable frame, elite on-base percentages, plus raw power, and surprising speed for his size. The biggest knock on him is his lack of aggressiveness at the plate. According to BrewerFanatic.com, his overall swing rate of 40.6% was the lowest of all 525 qualified hitters in MiLB and MLB in 2024. So, the key for Adams is to simply swing more because when he does, he makes a lot of contact and it’s some of the loudest of any prospect. (@BBoxscore)
9. Logan Henderson, RHP, 22, Triple-A
2024 was an injury riddled season for Henderson, who was coming off a very strong 2023 season in A ball. Milwaukee’s 2021 fourth rounder spent most of his starts this past season across Double/Triple-A. The strikeouts are there (104 in 81.1 IP) and the command is definitely on point (only 15 BB). He just has to stay healthy. Let’s see if he can come out of the gates strong this spring. If so, all signs point to his joining the Brewers at some point in 2025, either in the rotation or possibly, in high-leverage relief situations. (@Scotty_Ballgame)
10. Robert Gasser, LHP, 25, MLB
Gasser was on his way to graduating from prospect status when his season was cut short after an early June start. Up to that point, he was cruising with a 2.57 ERA and 1.04 WHIP in 28 MLB innings. Unfortunately, that injury led to the all too familiar outcome of TJ surgery which will likely cost him all of the 2025 season. If he can return to form, he looks like a solid number four starter dynasty owners and Brewers fans will just have to be patient. (@JMahyfam)
Tier 4
11. Mike Boeve, 3B/1B, 22, Double-A
12. Eric Bitonti, 3B, 19, Single-A
13. Luis Pena, SS, 18, Rookie (DSL)
14. Luis Lara, OF, 20, High-A
15. Brett Wichrowski, RHP, 22, Double-A
16. Josh Knoth, RHP, 19, Single-A
17. Caleb Durbin, 2B/3B, 24, Triple-A
18. K.C. Hunt, RHP, 24, Double-A
19. Blake Burke, 1B, 21, High-A
20. Braylon Payne, OF, 18, Single-A
21. Carlos Rodríguez, RHP, 23, MLB
22. Filippo Di Turi, SS/2B, 19, Single-A
23. Bishop Letson, RHP, 20, Single-A
24. Craig Yoho, RHP, 25, Triple-A
25. Eric Brown Jr., SS, 24, Double-A
26. Dylan O’Rae, 2B, 20, Double-A
Bitonti is an solid hitter with some good power, and could move up quickly if he controls the strikeouts even slightly better. Pena had an excellent year in Rookie ball, hitting for average, getting on base and stealing bases. If the power develops as expected, he could be a solid Major League player. Wichrowski is a hard thrower who has improved his command this past season. He could see time in the Majors later this season. Durbin impressed in his AFL stint and could be a solid regular in the Major Leagues this season. Hunt has the potential to be a back-end rotation starter. Burke went hitless in 16 at bats in Single-A but showed solid power in college. Di Turi hasn’t shown much in two years but has the tools to potentially be a reserve player in the majors. (@tonybps1)
Tier 5
27. Jadher Areinamo, 2B/SS, 21, High-A
28. Jorge Quintana, SS, 17, Rookie (DSL)
29. Jose Anderson, OF, 18, Rookie (DSL)
30. Bryce Meccage, RHP, 18, High school
31. Coleman Crow, RHP, 24, Injured (Double-A in 2023)
32. Juan Baez, 3B, 19, Single-A
33. Tyler Woessner, RHP, 25, Triple-A
34. Daniel Guilarte, 2B/SS, 21, Single-A
35. Luiyin Alastre, SS, 19, Rookie (ACL)
36. Tayden Hall, 1B, 22, High-A
37. Darrien Miller, C, 23, Double-A
38. Matt Wood, C, 23, High-A
39. Yerlin Rodriguez, RHP, 22, High-A
40. Wes Clarke, 1B, 25, Triple-A
41. Enniel Cortez, RHP, 18, Single-A
42. Manuel Rodriguez, RHP, 19, Single-A
43. Quinton Low, RHP, 22, Injured (Single-A in 2023)
44. Eduardo Garcia, SS, 22, Double-A
45. Pedro Ibarguen, OF, 18, Rookie (ACL)
46. Travis Smith, RHP, 22, College
47. Patricio Aquino, RHP, 21, High-A
48. Will Rudy, RHP, 23, High-A
49. Yorman Galindez, RHP, 21, Single-A
50. Ryan Birchard, RHP, 21, High-A
Quintana looked good for a 17-year-old in his first season in Rookie ball. Meccage, the team’s 2nd round pick, could be a mid-rotation starter once he fully develops. Crow missed all of the season with Tommy John surgery but has potential to start in the Major Leagues. Baez held his own in Single-A as a 19-year-old last season. Clarke has some solid power but has to control the strikeouts to make an impact. Rodriguez is more control over velocity, but looked sharp last season. (@tonybps1)
