BNS - Milwaukee Brewers: Top 10 Prospects For 2013



A 23-year-old right-hander, Wily Peralta’s 2012 numbers at Triple-A Nashville were not captivating. He posted a 4.66 ERA and a 1.58 WHIP, allowing 154 hits in 146.2 innings while walking 78. A lack of command was the main culprit, but he improved in the second half and logged a 2.48 ERA and a 1.21 WHIP with 11 walks in 29 innings over six games (including five starts) for Milwaukee.

A third round pick in 2010 out of Charleston Southern University, Tyler Thornburg has three plus pitches and keeps hitters off balance with deception. The power right-hander could be used as a late-inning reliever, but he has excelled as a starter in the Brewers’ farm system, reaching Triple-A Nashville after an in-season promotion last year.

Taylor Jungmann is a 6-foot-6 right-hander who was Milwaukee’s first round pick (12th overall) out of the University of Texas in 2011. He combined a high 90s fast ball with a dangerous curve ball and an effective change-up. When he hones his command, he will be a more consistent starter. The 23-year-old Jungmann is slated to make his Double-A debut in 2013.
