Can Jesus Made Reach the Major Leagues in the Second Half?
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop prospect Jesus Made is considered the No. 1-ranked prospect in all of baseball on MLB.com and has put together a strong start to the Double-A regular season. With the Biloxi Shuckers, Made has held a solid .287/.360/.449 line with a .809 OPS. The 19-year-old has not looked overmatched in the upper minor leagues, hitting 12 doubles, seven home runs, swiping 21 bags, and holding a 44:29 K:BB. Last summer, the top-ranked prospect in the game split his time across the lower levels before earning a brief taste of Double-A action late in the campaign. While Made is flashing elite upside, managers in the draft league should not view him as a top stash candidate yet. He will need to not only reach Triple-A but also show enough progress to join the Brewers in the second half. With Cooper Pratt recently earning the call, and Jett Williams ahead of him in the pecking order, the 19-year-old future superstar is best left on the waiver wire in all standard leagues for the time being.
