Baseball America gave us an early present today: it’s Top 10 Milwaukee Brewers Prospects mid-season update. The lists normally come out later, but the Brewers were one of the organizational lists they put out early due to the race to get Manny Machado.
Tom Haudricourt helps assemble the list. He spends time speaking with scouts and reviewing their thoughts on the individual players. Here’s how he put them together:
1. Keston Hiura, 2B - AA Biloxi Shuckers
It will surprise no one that Hiura is going to be the universal #1 prospect for the org. This report on Hiura is the same as all of them: great hitter, great potential, is the elbow healthy?
