Brewers Sign Luis Lara to Seven-Year Extension, On the Verge of MLB Promotion?
Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara has agreed to a seven-year, $31 million contract extension that includes three club options and can max out at $79 million. The 21-year-old has dominated Triple-A this season, and the long-term commitment gives fantasy managers another reason to keep him on the radar. Lara has enjoyed a dominant season with Triple-A Nashville, carrying an elite .343/.453/.505 line with seven home runs and 18 stolen bases. While Lara is still a stash candidate, his impressive start to the season has put him on the verge of a promotion, much sooner than anticipated. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should continue to view him as a top prospect to stash among hitters, while dynasty managers should treat the extension as another sign that Milwaukee views him as a major part of its long-term outfield picture.
