Milwaukee Brewers Top Prospects 2015

                                 Milwaukee Brewers Top Prospects 2015

 Here are my list of top prospects for the Milwaukee Brewers based on 2014 stats. I haven't seen most of them play, so these are based simply on the line stats on MiLB.com. I apologize to all those statistic geeks who know so much more than me. I'm old school and still think RBIs are good and K's are bad. Haha .I will list my best per position.

   Pitchers

      SP  Tyler Cravy  8-1  1.72 ERA   73IP   47H   WHIP  .85  Would have been nice to have him in September. Ended up throwing some in rookie league. Don't know if he got hurt or limiting innings. He is why we don't sign Gallardo

            Tyler Wagner  13-6  1.86 ERA  Finished up at AA. Hopefully will impress in spring training and join the team sometime in 2015. Tyler Thornburg, who?? Probably our minor league pitcher of the year (unless they give it to Fiers or Nelson)

           Hobbs Johnson  12-8  2.93 ERA  1.09 WHIP. Moves to AA next year. I get to see the Stars when they play the Smokies so looking forward to seeing Wagner, Johnson, Bradley

          Joshua Torres     4-0    1.92 ERA    1.10 WHIP    .239 BA against

          Jungman and Bradley. Drafted out of college they have advanced slower than high schoolers. I had basically given up on both but they somewhat resurrected their careers.  Don't resign Estrada


      LR   Michael Strong  2.50 ERA  1.04 WHIP

              Zach Hirsch - lefty at Helena 41 IP 5BB 40K 1.17WHIP

      SR    Greg Holle  2.31 ERA  .94WHIP

               Mark Williams  1.61 ERA  .81 WHIP

              Gian Rizzo   2.22 ERA  3BB  32K   .78 WHIP

              Kaleb Earls   2.08 ERA  17IP  4BB  24K   .87 WHIP

              Luke Curts   24IP  23K  .99 WHIP   BA against .200

Cravy, Wagner, and Johnson were also on my list last year along with Nelson who moved up to the big time.

   Catcher - Clint Colter   .287/.410/ .520 /.930   Probably our minor league hitter of the year. Unfortunately Brewers will be slow with him and he will go Brevard 15, Huntsville 16, Nashville 17, Brewers 18. He was my pick last year too. Wasn't he a number 1 pick? Is that possible that one would pan out???

        Backup  Matt Martin, Gregory McCall, or Jack Cleary. Start thinking outfield, 1B, or 3B boys.

  1B Matt Clark .313/.371/.605/.976   Great pick up by Melvin

  2B Nathan Orf .288/ .388  Great OBP Had him at 3B last year

  3B  Jason Rogers  .313/.371/.605/.976   Save some money and don't sign Ramirez

   SS  Orlando Arcia  .289/.346  31SB  Came up clutch in AA playoffs. Before extending Segura, let's check him out.

   Utility - Eugenio Valez. Yah, he is old but what can you say about a guy that keeps hitting over .300 at AAA. We should have brought him up to PH

  OF = Here is it really gets weak. I still have hopes for Victor Roache and Tyrone Taylor, but they really need to start dominating weaker pitching. So, here are my 2 outfielders because that's all I can find.

      Monte Harrison .261/.402/.339  32 SB and 2CS. And just out of HS. Plus he didn't go to Nebraska as a WR so gotta be a Wisconsin fave.

      Joantgel Segovia  .384/.457/.446/.903 In the Dominican league as a teenager. He is my new favorite! Hope he can make the leaps

  So there it is. Once again one of the worst farm systems in the majors. That's why we need to give up guys like  Cain, Brantley, Odorizzi, Haniger because we never have anyone to bring up to help us in the pennant runs. There will be a shakeup in the drafting now. Lets see what happens but Kodi our 1st pick is going to be another bust.
