Although the Milwaukee Brewers have a relatively deep farm system with many players close to the major leagues, it’s devoid of a true impact prospect. Rather, it’s top heavy with numerous high-floor players, many of whom are on pace to reach the major leagues in either 2013 or 2014.
The organization’s prospect pool is highlighted by right-handed pitchers Wily Peralta, Tyler Thornburg and John Hellweg. But after the graduation of Jean Segura to the major leagues in late 2012, the Brewers need one of their young hitters to step up during the 2013 season. They do have a pair of power-hitting prospects in Hunter Morris and outfielder Victor Roache. But beyond those two, power is scarce within their system.
