Luis Lara Not Slowing at Triple-A, Remains a Top Stash Option
Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara reached base three times on Sunday, doubling once and drawing two walks, pushing his season-long on-base percentage to .438, which is good for second-best in all of Triple-A among qualified players. The Brewers' fourth-ranked prospect is now hitting .326 with a .457 slugging percentage, and has also stolen 20 bases so far this season in 73 games. Maybe the most impressive thing is that the switch-hitter is boasting a 15.3 percent walk rate compared to a minuscule 13.7 percent strikeout rate, thanks to a 91st percentile whiff rate. The 21-year-old looks ready to take the next step and should get his opportunity for a major league debut in the second half. With excellent bat-to-ball skills and plenty of speed, along with the ability to hit for extra bases, the 5-foot-7 Venezuelan should be viewed as one of the top bats to stash for fantasy in most leagues.

Luis Lara a Priority Stash Despite Power Outage
Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara continues to shine for Triple-A Nashville, recording an impressive four-hit game on Tuesday, and after going 1-for-2 with a pair of walks on Wednesday, the Brewers' fifth-ranked prospect is now slashing a robust .328/.439/.462 with seven home runs and 20 steals. On the downside, the 5-foot-7 Venezuelan's eye-opening power surge to begin the season has fizzled out, having not hit a home run since May 6, which is a 36-game stretch now without one, and he's been stuck on 20 steals since June 10 after he's come up empty in his last three stolen base attempts. Nevertheless, the switch-hitter is showing an advanced approach, striking out at just a 13.7 percent rate (88th percentile) and walking at a rate higher than that of 14.7 percent (79th percentile). The team has shown confidence in the 21-year-old, recently rewarding him with a seven-year, $31 million contract, so expect to see him in the majors in the coming weeks. Don't expect much power, but with the ability to hit for average, draw walks, steal plenty of bases, and score runs, Lara makes for a solid stash in most 12-team leagues.

Jett Williams Offers Multi-Category Potential, but is He Worth Stashing Amid Slump?
Milwaukee Brewers infield/outfield prospect Jett Williams continues to scuffle at Triple-A, but has provided glimpses of what's possible over the last three games. The Brewers' third-ranked prospect has shown some power after cracking a double in Wednesday's contest, he's stolen three bases, scored five runs, and posted a 3:5 BB:K over that three-game span. He even had a two-homer game as recently as June 16. Unfortunately, he's hitting just .163 in 26 games since May 22 with an elevated 25.6 percent strikeout rate, so he'll need to turn it around if the team is going to consider him for a call-up to the majors. The former first-rounder hit 17 home runs and stole 34 bases a season ago, so there is a lot to like about his fantasy potential, and his positional versatility should offer multiple paths to playing time, but fantasy managers will likely have to wait until sometime in the second half before the 22-year-old makes his big league debut. As such, the right-handed hitter doesn't warrant stash consideration in most leagues at the moment.

Luis Lara Offers Well-Rounded Fantasy Profile, Remains Top Stash Candidate?
Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara is doing everything he can at Triple-A Nashville to encourage a promotion to the major leagues. The outfielder is hitting .313 with 56 runs, seven homers, 30 RBI, and 20 stolen bases across 67 games of action. That power-speed combination should play at the big league level (.873 OPS in 246 at-bats). The Brewers have shown an ability to get the most out of all types of players in Milwaukee, and Lara profiles as another player who could thrive at American Family Field. With the Brewers beckoning, Lara is a name to target in the waiver-wire process, and he could provide immediate dividends for fantasy managers. Additionally, earlier in June, the Brewers inked the top-100 prospect to a seven-year contract extension, signaling his long-term role on this roster. Entering Week 13, Lara profiles as a top outfield prospect to stash as he is on the trajectory to compete for an MLB debut in the coming weeks.

Luis Lara Remains High on Stash Rankings Despite Power Skid
Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara has yet to return to his early-season power production, but he remains firmly in the mix to debut in the coming weeks. Lara agreed to a seven-year extension with the Brewers earlier in June, suggesting the team views him as a major piece of the roster going forward. The outfielder began the 2026 season with Triple-A, marking his first taste of the top level in the minor leagues. Following a hot start, Lara has seen his power production gradually decline as he has carried a .286/.406/.357 line with no home runs (and only two doubles) over his last 16 games of action. Before this skid, Lara held a .506 SLG with seven home runs over his first 47 games. Power was never a strong component of his profile, but if he can return to this early-season level of play, Lara could make a strong push to join the Brewers ahead of the All-Star break. His five-category potential makes him a priority outfield prospect to stash in 12+ team leagues.

Jett Williams Homers Twice, Back on the Stash Radar?
Milwaukee Brewers infield/outfield prospect Jett Williams went deep twice on Tuesday for Triple-A Nashville, a sign that perhaps he's about to go on a bit of a hot streak. The Brewers' third-ranked prospect had his batting average up to .256 on May 20, but has seen it dip all the way to .227 even after Tuesday's contest. The former first-rounder can do a bit of everything, now with eight home runs on the season along with 13 steals and a solid 13.1 percent walk rate (21.2 percent strikeout rate). Not only that, he can play all over the infield and center field, giving him multiple paths to the majors and eligibility at 2B, SS, and OF in Yahoo! leagues. The versatile 22-year-old could be up in the big leagues by the All-Star break, and with the ability to be a multi-category contributor, he should be considered a stash candidate in deeper leagues.

Jett Williams Still a Prospect Worth Stashing in Deeper Leagues?
Milwaukee Brewers third base prospect Jett Williams continues to be an intriguing name to monitor in fantasy baseball leagues. Acquired from the Mets over the offseason, Williams owns a modest .229/.342/.367 slash line this year, but we're impressed by his blend of power (six homers), speed (13 steals), and plate awareness (13.4% walk rate). He's a perfect fit for the Brewers' brand of baseball, which prioritizes defense and base-stealing ability. The former is undeniably one of Williams' strengths. He consistently excelled up the middle in the Mets' system, and he has handled a shift to third base with ease this year, while still getting some reps at shortstop or in center field. Even if the slash line and 93 wRC+ don't improve significantly, Williams is still projected to make his MLB debut this season. Managers in deeper leagues should stash Williams now, because he'll offer a decent pairing of home runs and steals once he's in the majors.

Luis Lara the Next Prospect to Debut After Massive Extension?
Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara inked a seven-year, $31 million contract extension with the Brewers earlier this week and was added to the 40-man roster, putting him on the verge of his MLB debut. Lara has spent the entire 2026 campaign with Triple-A Nashville and has held his own during his first taste of the top level of the minor leagues. Through his first 58 games of action with the Sounds, Lara has gone deep seven times while adding eight doubles, 20 stolen bases with a .336/.447/.493 line. During this stretch, he has carried a .940 OPS. His recent power surge is worth noting, as Lara only hit two total home runs over 136 games with Double-A last summer. While there is no clear spot for him on the MLB roster at the moment, Lara appears poised to enter the Milwaukee starting nine in the coming weeks, making him a solid stash target with high-end five-category potential.

Luis Lara Displays Multi-Category Potential, Remains a High-End Stash
Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara played in his first game on Tuesday since signing a seven-year, $31 million contract extension and went 1-for-3 with two walks, a run scored, and a stolen base. The Brewers' fifth-ranked prospect has been impressive at Triple-A Nashville this season, slashing .338/.450/.498 and belting seven home runs (last season he hit just two in 136 games) while swiping 19 bags. While the development in the power department has been a welcome sight, the 5-foot-7 Venezuelan is in the midst of a power outage, having not hit a home run in 23 consecutive games now, with his last coming on May 6. Regardless, the team clearly sees him as part of their future after rewarding him with a new contract, and with the way he's hitting, a call-up to the majors could happen by the end of the month. With excellent contact ability and speed, along with some newfound power, the switch-hitter remains a high-end hitter to stash for his multi-category potential.

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.

Has Jett Williams Fallen Off the Stash Radar?
Milwaukee Brewers infield/outfield prospect Jett Williams continues to scuffle at Triple-A Nashville, going just 7-for-56 (.125) over his last 14 games for the Sounds, which includes just one extra-base hit (a triple) and one steal. It has dampened his prospects for a big league debut in the near future, but if he can turn it around, a call-up around the All-Star break could be well within reach. The Brewers' third-ranked prospect can do a little of everything, coming off a 17-homer campaign a season ago in which he also stole 34 bags while hitting .261 with a strong 13.3 percent walk rate. The former first-rounder is still showcasing many of those skills in 2026, with five home runs, 12 steals, and a 13.4 percent walk rate through 60 games. Combined with the ability to play multiple positions on the infield and center field, his versatility on both offense and defense could be an asset in the majors. The 22-year-old is eligible at 2B, SS, and OF in Yahoo! leagues, so there is plenty of appeal here as a potential stash candidate in deeper leagues, he just needs to pick it up at the plate.

Jake Bauers is Becoming a Must-Have Player
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman/outfielder Jake Bauers is posting strong numbers at the plate recently. Over the last week, Bauers has hit two home runs, eight RBI, and six walks. Overall this season, Bauers is slashing .275/.371/.500 with eight homers and 28 RBI against right-handed pitching. He's crushing the ball right now and is showing no signs of slowing down at the plate. The 30-year-old could very well be headed towards a career-year, assuming he keeps playing at this pace. Fantasy managers in need of a stick should consider adding Bauers before someone else scoops him up off the waiver wire.

Luis Lara Maintaining Stash Value Amid Power Slump?
Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara has enjoyed a remarkable start to the Triple-A regular season and has emerged as a top stash candidate in the opening months of the season. Through his first 33 games of the season (and at the Triple-A level in his career), the young outfielder has gone deep seven times while carrying a .341/.438/.562 line with a .998 OPS. During this stretch, Lara also showcased high-end speed, stealing 12 bags while holding a 19:17 K:BB. However, over his last 23 games, Lara has not hit a home run but maintained a high .346/.476/.420 line. As he progressed through the lower levels, power was never his strong suit, as he hit just two home runs over 136 games at Double-A in 2025. If Lara can find his power upside in June, he could compete for a first-half MLB debut and carry high-end five-category upside when he earns the call.

Jackson Chourio has Huge Game in Loss to Giants on Thursday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio doubled his home run total for the season in Thursday's 12-9 loss to the visiting San Francisco Giants at American Family Field, going 3-for-4 at the plate with two home runs, four RBI, four runs scored, a walk, and a strikeout to raise his season average to .308 and his OPS to .878. It was the 22-year-old's first multi-homer game of the 2026 season and the third of his career. The Venezuelan outfielder got a late start to the year due to a broken hand, and he hasn't shown much power on the year until Thursday night, but otherwise, he has been productive for the Brew Crew in his third year in the big leagues. Chourio came into Thursday's tilt with a .291/.354/.437 slash line, .791 OPS, only two home runs, 12 RBI, five stolen bases, and 15 runs scored across 25 games and 113 plate appearances. His big game on Thursday extended his current hitting streak to six games, and he now has three multi-hit games during that span. It's safe to say that Chourio is heating up now that the calendar has flipped to June.

Luis Lara Scratched From Triple-A Lineup, is he Nearing an MLB Promotion?
Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara was scratched from the lineup with Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday, leading to speculation that he might be on his way up to the Brewers for his first major-league call-up. The 21-year-old Venezuelan, who is considered the team's No. 5 prospect per MLB Pipeline, came into Wednesday's tilt with the Sounds with a .338/.447/.500 slash line with a .947 OPS, seven home runs, 27 RBI, 18 stolen bases, and 49 runs scored across 56 games and 247 plate appearances in his fifth season in the minors. Lara is still very young and probably has some more maturing to do, but the 5-foot-7, 169-pounder has shown improvement in the power department so far in 2026, to go along with his already elite speed and defensive abilities in the outfield. Once he does reach the majors, Lara has the defensive ability alone to be an everyday center fielder. If his power continues to improve, he has the potential to be a five-category fantasy producer, making him a stash candidate now for managers in dynasty/keeper leagues.
