The Milwaukee Brewers are rolling.
Back-to-back walk-offs helped them sweep the New York Yankees over the weekend. As of today, the Brewers look like strong contenders in the National League.
There are a few ways Milwaukee can improve, and it includes their minor league system. FanSided's Christopher Kline believes calling up one of their top prospects sooner rather than later will benefit the NL Central club.
"Cooper Pratt earned an eight-year, $50.5 million extension before his first MLB at-bat, a strong show of faith from the Brewers front office," Kline wrote. "He's not exactly lighting up Triple-A right now (.612 OPS), but he's a potential Gold Glove defender at a premium position, with a laundry list of intangible traits Milwaukee tends to value. It's easy to envision Pratt getting his call-up soon, especially since the Brewers don't need to worry about service time manipulation."
Right now, the Brewers have Joey Ortiz at shortstop. He's a valuable defender, but a .443 OPS in 94 trips to the plate is less than attractive.
