The Milwaukee Brewers are reportedly bringing up their top catching prospect Jeferson Quero for his major league debut. The 23-year-old Venezuela native is ranked as the team's eighth-best prospect overall.
Multiple sources reported Saturday that the Milwaukee Brewers plan to promote catching prospect Jeferson Quero for his first appearance in the major leagues.
The team will need to make a corresponding roster adjustment before Saturday’s matchup with the Chicago White Sox at home. The 23-year-old catcher holds the No. 8 spot on MLB.com’s ranking of Milwaukee’s top prospects.
After William Contreras and Gary Sanchez were tapped as the team’s primary catchers to begin the season, Quero was assigned to Triple-A Nashville. There, he appeared in just one contest, drawing a walk across four trips to the plate.
Throughout his six-year minor league career, the Venezuelan player has maintained a .275 batting average while collecting 39 homers and driving in 171 runs across 279 contests. During his 58-game stint with Nashville last year, he posted a .255 average along with six home runs and 44 RBIs.
Shoulder surgery limited Quero to just a single game during the entire 2024 minor league campaign.
