Jeferson Quero Sent Back to Triple-A
The Milwaukee Brewers announced on Tuesday that they optioned catching prospect Jeferson Quero back to Triple-A Nashville and selected the contract of outfielder Luis Matos to the active roster in a corresponding move. The Brewers acquired Matos, a former top prospect, from the Giants in a minor trade on Monday. Milwaukee temporarily called up their top catching prospect late last week after first baseman Andrew Vaughn (hand) landed on the 10-day injured list, but Quero only saw two plate appearances, walking and grounding out. Quero is already one of the best defensive catching prospects in baseball, but he'll head back to the farm for more seasoning with the bat after missing extended time in recent seasons due to a shoulder injury in the minors. For now, the Brewers will move forward with starter William Contreras and backup Gary Sanchez at catcher.
