Brewers Calling Up Catching Prospect Jeferson Quero
The Milwaukee Brewers are calling up catching prospect Jeferson Quero from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday, a source told Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtra Base. Quero, the team's No. 8 prospect per MLB Pipeline, will give the Brewers more catching depth behind William Contreras and Gary Sanchez. The 23-year-old Venezuelan backstop will be making his big-league debut whenever he gets into a game, but right now, his path to playing time appears blocked in Milwaukee. Quero dealt with hamstring and shoulder injuries in the minors in 2025 and was limited to 250 plate appearances, hitting .255/.336/.412 with 11 home runs, 57 RBI, and 42 runs scored in 69 games on the farm. It's a questionable early-season call-up unless one of Contreras or Sanchez is currently dealing with an injury that we are unaware of. Quero is considered one of baseball's best defensive catching prospects, although he's not on MLB Pipeline's list of top-10 catching prospects overall.
