2026 Prospect Reports / Lists / Rankings / Interviews / Etc.

[BrewersRice]

You are correct in being that they had his skills at 55, and it does seem that MLB Pipeline does typically put its rankings on overall skills. I dont think though that they would take the person who they ranked 22 in the draft to be ahead of who they ranked 18th in all the minors, so guessing a possibility of #2 would be overambitious. Most of their current player rankings are also early season or preseason. I dont see even pipeline ranking him ahead of guys performing well at A+ or AA. I noticed I believe Burke, on his way to a 30/30 season with still a 30 run rating. It sounds like Pipeline is higher on Strosnider than most publications or teams were. This should mean he has the skills, but the question to me, is if it will translate to the field. I believe he is more of a corner outfielder and not a premium position as well, so the hit tool will really need to climb up.  

I still doubt even pipeline when they readjust will place him above 8. Even if bunched with other 55 skill prospects- he would slide in at the end of them at 7 at the highest. I dont see how they could rank him above Fischer, Payne, or Burke. I personally would not even place him above Ragsdale, who pipeline rated 45 hit and 40 power early season while he is on pace for 20HR and batting .322./454/.533.  I just dont see how someone would rank him above guys that are performing better at a higher level.  I think he is a good prospect and many years he would find himself in top 5 in most systems. My guess remains that he finds himself in most publications along with Ebel in the 13-20 range. Pipeline, being a little more skills based then production based, my guess might put him a little higher, but I still dont see them putting him at above #8.

In 2025, there were 16 milb players with 20/20 seasons. Brewers currently have 13 guys on pace or maybe 1-2 behind pace for having a 20/20 season. Arguments could even be made for others with a hot second half.  

Jet Williams

Luke Adams - a little behind, but based on his stats per number of at bats

Made

Burke - already there

Adamczewski

Ragsdale

Fischer

Payne

Bitonti

Hall

Anderson

Encarnacion

Artunez - would need to be promoted to have a chance.

That early season juiced ball they were testing whacks out overall numbers. It is a great stat to look at. I would wonder across other systems how they look this year for that start.

Reports are the Mariana Trench has inquired with the Brewers about acquiring more depth.

Let's be serious for a sec. The league could run a 29-team draft of the Brewers system, and Strosnider very possibly wouldn't be picked.

Five of the first six guys in Biloxi’s lineup yesterday finished the game with OPSs (OPSi?) over .900. The sixth guy is the top prospect in baseball.

Aram of Just Baseball recently said that he would take the Brewers Biloxi team over many teams entire minor league systems.  The Brewers have some serious depth.
