Midseason-ish Form (Pitchers)

Wichrowski, Manfredi, Letson, Patrick, Cornielle probably a few others could be added as well. The pitching in our system has been amazing this year. 

[biedergb]

Wichrowski - struggling a little in AA, but also just 21 and only drafted last year, but should be HM on that list

I agree with Letson, Patrick and definitely Cornielle.

[sveumrules]

Yeah, Cornielle was in the last spot on the first page of the leaderboard I was pulling from and I just missed him...

Alexander Cornielle | A+ | 22yo
61.0 IP | 3.10 ERA | 3.91 FIP
20.2 K% | 9.3 BB% | 0.44 HR9

Wichrowski has good scouting reports but the results just aren't there yet (4.47 ERA | 4.88 FIP).

Manfredi (4.04 ERA | 4.53 FIP) should probably have better results as a 24yo in A+.

Letson has the scouting reports and a nice 3.23 ERA, but the peripherals were just lagging too far behind (4.82 FIP) for him to meet the rough cutoffs I set when putting together the list.

Patrick was kind of the same deal where his 2.89 ERA in the environs of the International League is impressive and makes him an interesting depth option for the big league club, but the peripherals (4.23 FIP) had him just outside where I arbitrarily drew the line for inclusion.

Yoho’s numbers are absurd. They are video game esque. 

Logan Henderson’s fastball might need a reevaluation from the prospect sites. The amount of swing and miss he is generating on that pitch right now shows that it is much better than a grade 50 fastball. If that fastball keeps playing the way it is I don’t see how he isn’t our best starting pitching prospect in the system by year end.

He has made immense strides on that pitch since first drafted. He casually routinely touches 97 mph now - a far cry from his original Low-A work. He always had the arm side run on that offering but with the increased velo it has become an absolute monster of a pitch. AND, as per usual, this is also aided by an absurdly advanced change up. I personally always thought this type of evolution was possible. From the get go, he has shown an intensity and competitiveness few in the system match. And, he has an incredibly built lower half to help him achieve these numbers. Room to grow, to boot. 22 years old until March of 2025? He's as untouchable as they get in my eyes in terms of coveted Brewers prospects. I've been on this train from his first start in Carolina and have been absolutely front and center lamenting how ridiculously overlooked he'd been. People saw the injuries and the placement and overlooked what was clear as day from the actual work on the mound: Ace stuff.
