Milwaukee Brewers Top Prospects 2016
Here are my list of top prospects for the Milwaukee Brewers based on 2015 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 based on 13 man staff
SP/LR
RH Rodrigo Benoit - 21 y/o in DSL 6-1, 2.10 ERA, .92 WHIP Great numbers! My only fear is he came out of nowhere after 2 bad years. Late puberty? 0 HR in 73 innings!
RH Carlos Luna - 18 y/o in DSL 4-2 1.46 ERA, 1.01 WHIP
RH Jorge Ortega - 22y/o in Brevard to AAA, A winning record from anyone not in Biloxi is impressive. 2.38 ERA, 1.06 WHIP
RH Carlos Herrera - 18y/o DSL 4-2 3.26 ERA 80 IP 68H 13BB 73K 1.01WHIP .228Avg.
RH Jorge Lopez - 22y/o at AA 12-5 2.26 ERA, 143 IP 137K, .205 Avg, 1.10 WHIP. Southern league pitcher of the year and certainly Brewer's minor league pitcher of the year. What's not to like except that this is the first year he has performed anywhere near this well. Lets hope he can keep it up!
LH Josh Hader - 22y/o at AA 2.94 ERA 33IP,44K, .195 Avg., .95 WHIP We may regret getting rid of Melvin after this trade!
RH Hiram Burgos - 28 y/o at AAA mile high Colorado Springs ERA 3.34, .222Avg., 1.17 WHIP. Former top prospect had surgery and fell off our radar. Give him another chance!
RH Daniel Missaki 19 y/o A 34IP 31H 5BB 34K 1.04 WHIP Injury ended season
RH Bubba Derby 21 y/o A 34 IP 19H 45K avg.161 WHIP .84

C - Carlos Leal 24y/o LH hitter .309/.367/.397 at Low A. Consistantly over .300 all year on a team that struggled to hit. Apparently injured the latter half of the season
Dustin Houle 21y/o RH hitter at High A .308/.360/.451
Jacob Nottingham 20 y/o RH at A .316/.372/.505 17 HR
3B no prospects. Going to have to move Segura or Arcia
2B George Iskanderian 21y/o RH at Helena .328/.367/.403
Blake Allemand 23 y/o at Low A .293/.341/.361
Nathan Orf 25y/o RH at AA .274/.378/.368 His .378 OBP is consistant every year. Walks a lot which is what the Brewers desperately need.
SS Orlando Arcia 21y/o RH .308/.349/.457 at AA
Isan Diaz 19 y/o LH .360/.436/.640/1.076 at ROK
1B Garrett Cooper 24 y/o RH at AA .311/.375/.454 at 6'6" probably play here rather than 3B
OF Trent Clark 18 y/o LH .313/.426/.438 Going to be our best 1st round pick since Braun
Joantgel Segovia 18 y/o RH up to ROK from DSL continued to get on base. .331/.392/.347. Suffered a season ending injury
Brett Phillips 21y/o LH at AA .309/.374/.527 Bring back Doug Melvin!
players to watch Taylor, Roche, Harrison, Oriomyole
I am more encouraged with our farm system than before. We are better than last year with the off-season trades but still will have a losing record throughout MILB. My two favorites this year - Kuntz and Clark.
