Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero had a productive day at the plate on Tuesday for Triple-A Nashville, going 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI, and two runs scored for the Sounds. It marked the fourthmulti-hit effort in his last six games, and he's hitting .324 (12-for-37) since being reinstated from the injured liston June 3. The Brewers' second-ranked prospect (MLB No. 37) hit 16 home runs in his last full season of 2023, and even though he hit five home runs in his Complex League rehab assignment, he's yet to hit one for Nashville. Nevertheless, the 22-year-old owns better-than-average strikeout (17.2 percent) and walk (9.5 percent) rates during his minor league career, which, with his solid hit and power tools, should help get him to the majors later this year, even if it's just a late-season call-up.

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (hamstring) has been reassigned to Triple-A Nashville after completing an 11-game rehab assignment with the team's Arizona Complex League affiliate. The Brewers' second-ranked prospect went 1-for-5 with a single and two strikeouts in his first game back with the Sounds on Tuesday night. In his last full season of 2023, the 5-foot-11 backstop hit .262 with 16 home runs and registered a .339 OBP thanks to a 10.0 percent walk rate in 90 games at Double-A. Due to so much missed time, he'll have to get off to a hot start in order to get the call to majors by season's end, and with William Contreras locked in as the starting catcher, there's no need to rush him.

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero continued to work his way back from a strained hamstring, playing in his ninth rehab game for the team's Arizona Complex League affiliate on Tuesday, and what a game it was. The 22-year-old went 4-for-5 with a double, a home run, four RBI, and two runs scored in the contest. The Brewers' second-ranked prospect could be headed back to Triple-A Nashville after this performance and has a chance to make his MLB debut later this year. TheVenezuelan backstop logged one plate appearance at Triple-A last year before going down with a shoulder injury that kept him out all season, but MLB's 41st-ranked prospect has a solid offensive profile that could make him an intriguingadd in fantasy if he were to get the call, although he's not a stash candidate at this time.

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (hamstring, shoulder) injured his hamstring just as he was completing his comeback from last year's shoulder surgery. Quero is now expected to move from the rookie-level Arizona Complex League to Triple-A Nashville as soon as next Monday, according to MLB.com. In six games in the ACL, Quero has gone 2-for-15 with two home runs, three RBI, four runs scored, five walks and one strikeout. The 22-year-old catching prospect missed all of the 2024 season due to his shoulder surgery, but he's past that injury now and is getting close to making his 2025 debut in the minor leagues. Per MLB Pipeline, Quero is Milwaukee's No. 2 prospect and the fifth-best catching prospect. Despite being one of the best catching prospects in all of baseball, Quero is currently blocked at the big-league level by William Contreras.

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (hamstring, shoulder) has resumed baseball activities as he continues his return from multiple injuries. The Venezuelan backstop made one plate appearance last season before going down with a shoulder injury that required surgery, then suffered a hamstring injury in spring training this year. Whenever the 22-year-old gets back in the lineup, it is expected to be with Triple-A Nashville, but the Brewers' top prospect (MLB No. 44) should make his major-league debut at some point later this year. However, after missing so much time and with William Contreras locked in at catcher, there is no need to rush it. With a 16-homer campaign under his belt in just 90 games in 2023, there is some pop in his bat, so fantasy managers needing catcher help will want to monitor his progression, although he is known more for his work behind the plate than his offense.

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (hamstring, shoulder), who is still building back from right-shoulder surgery last year to fix a torn labrum, has recently been set back by a hamstring injury in recent days, according to MLB Pipeline's Sam Dykstra. Quero is expected to return to minor-league action (likely with Triple-A Nashville) later this month. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should keep an eye on Quero, as he could be an elite defensive option for the Brewers by the second half of the season. The 22-year-old backstop is the team's top prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and is also considered the No. 5 catching prospect in the league. His defense is ahead of his offense, though, so fantasy managers will likely need to practice patience whenever he makes his MLB debut. Quero only played one game last year for Nashville and hit .262/.339/.441 with 16 homers and 49 RBI in 90 games at Double-A Biloxi in 2023.

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (shoulder) played in a minor-league contest with Double-A Biloxi on Monday evening, serving as the designated hitter. Quero was unable to play in any Cactus League games after suffering a season-ending shoulder injury in 2024. He was only able to appear in one contest last season before being sidelined. During spring training, the team eased his workload, but it appears the backstop could be ready for the start of the 2025 MiLB regular season. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status as he will likely remain the designated hitter for the foreseeable future until he returns behind the plate. In 2023, Quero spent his entire season at Double-A and posted a .262/.399/.440 slash line with 12 doubles and 16 home runs. If he can perform well at Triple-A this season, he could contend for an MLB debut during the second half of the campaign.

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (shoulder) was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Monday. Quero missed the majority of the 2024 season after undergoing surgery to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder. Before the injury, he appeared in just one minor-league contest last summer. Manager Pat Murphy noted that Quero will likely serve as the team's DH during the start of the Triple-A season as he continues to increase his workload defensively. He was unable to appear in any spring training contests with the major-league roster. In 2023, Quero spent his entire 2023 at the Double-A level and posted a strong .262/.339/.440 slash line with 12 doubles and 16 long balls. The 22-year-old is considered the team's top prospect on MLB Pipeline and one of the top catching prospects in the sport. He could push for a late-season MLB debut if he performs well at Triple-A during the first half of the season.

According to Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (shoulder) is expected to play during spring training "at some point." Rosiak noted that backstop said he is physically at "75-80 percent" right now. The 22-year-old underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder last April. He was only able to appear in one game before undergoing the season-ending surgery. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should continue to monitor his status as he is considered the top prospect in the Milwaukee system on MLB Pipeline and the No. 35 best in the sport. During the 2023 campaign, the backstop logged 90 games at the Double-A level and posted a .262/.339/.440 slash line with 12 doubles, 16 home runs, and a 38:65 BB:K ratio. He will likely open the season at the Triple-A level but could push for a debut later in the summer if he performs well.

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (shoulder), who is ranked by MLB Pipeline as the team's No. 3 prospect, will have season-ending shoulder surgery for a torn labrum in his right shoulder. The recovery time is expected to be nine months. The 21-year-old backstop will miss the entire 2024 season after injuring his throwing shoulder during the first game of the year with Triple-A Nashville. Barring setbacks in the offseason, Quero should be ready for the start of spring training in 2025. Quero is already one of the best defensive catching prospects in the game and also hit .262/.339/.441 with a career-high 16 home runs, 49 RBI and five stolen bases in 90 games with Double-A Biloxi in 2023. Despite the injury, there's still a lot to like about Quero's long-term upside at the MLB level.

Milwaukee Brewers No. 3 prospect Jeferson Quero (shoulder) was removed from Friday's game at Triple-A Nashville after he appeared to hurt his shoulder diving back to first base while being picked off. The severity of Quero's injury is unknown at this time, but it would be a really tough break for the Brewers and one of their top prospects if he suffered a serious injury this early in the season. The 21-year-old is regarded as one of the best defensive catchers in the minors, and he hit .262/.339/.441 with a career-high 16 home runs, 49 RBI and five stolen bases in 90 games over 381 trips to the plate with Double-A Biloxi in 2023. Quero is currently blocked at the major-league level by Willson Contreras, so a trade might be best for his long-term future at the next level.
