The Milwaukee Brewers already have one 20-year-old poised to enter superstardom, but a lesser known prospect of Milwaukee's could have an even higher ceiling.
Anyone following the Milwaukee Brewers knows how good 20-year-old Jackson Chourio is, but he might not be Milwaukee’s most talented young player.
Chourio’s time has certainly arrived, but what do the next few years look like for the Brewers?

He wowed in the 2023 Futures Game by touching 102.4 mph and generally sits in the upper 90s with a heater that starts from his low three-quarters slot, gets close to the plate with a ton of extension and explodes up in the zone.
