Is it too early to start predicting who will be the Brewers 2025 AFL players?
I am thinking Quero has to be a lock? I don't think they will want Pratt, Made or Pena to participate at least not this year. This would be the most games Pratt has ever played so I think he would be eliminated as a possibility. Maybe Josh Adamczewski has an outside chance to make it to the AFL? Blake Burke is also someone I think the Brewers would be looking at for the AFL.
The reason I think Quero is a lock is because of the number of games he has played this year. I think he will finish with less than 100 games and I believe the Brewers will want to get him in more game action this year and the AFL would allow for that. Also there are only three other major catching prospects that would be likely in the AFL for Surprise Carter Jensen (Royals), Cooper Ingle (Guardians) and Blake Mitchell (Royals). I don't believe the Royals would do both Jensen and Mitchell. So I think Quero would go but I think he was there in 2022. I can't remember if there is still a rule or if there is where a player can only be on an AFL roster once.
For pitchers I am not sure who would be available with innings left to pitch. Maybe Coleman Crow but I think he has to be reaching his innings limit by now? I think it is a year too early for Payne to be in the AFL.
