wayzupusc 420 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Highly productive minor leaguer who's always been way below the average age for his level through his trip to MLB. He flashed some in SD but stats look pretty meh on paper. Just got traded to Milwaukee..big upgrade on home ballpark and PT will not be an issue. Can play both middle infield spots.

En Votto Veritas 500 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 22 years old, he should start the season at SS with Huira at 2B. RosterResource has him hitting 7th (may end up 6th) so his counting stats may not be the best. Steamer says 601 PA: 16 - 61 - 72 - 5 - .251/.333 I think those are pretty fair numbers with definite upside in AVG/OBP. Also, keep an eye on him in points leagues and deeper stat leagues as he should deliver good BBs and 2Bs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brockpapersizer 11,980 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I think the last number of people that have gotten moved to MLW have been underrated in their projections. Decent chance at a big breakout here and someone hitting a lot closer to 300 than the 250 he's projected for. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST. STEVEN 4,392 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Like many contact oriented prospects, he was def a bit underrated. Then he got a hold of those AAA super balls and the hitter friendly PCL parks (esp home park) and it becomes harder to really decode what we have here? I liked the move for the Crew, as he is very young yet. I guess my main concerns are; can he handle SS and more chiefly-- I have read a lot about a lack of authority in his contact (ie low exit velos)...that is a red flag, right?

parrothead 2,143 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 His AAA team saw a massive jump in HR overall from 2018 to 2019 so my guess is that the balls played a big part in that. He is still really young, I would expect a bit of a power bump both because of age and also his new spot. Not only going from Petco to Miller, but with the weighted division heavy schedule MLB uses, playing an NL Central road schedule vs an NL West schedule I think it also a pretty big net positive for increase in offensive output. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
I was wrong on Kris Benson 45 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I'm concerned about his outlook just because the Padres traded him for seemingly a lower grade prospect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flyman75 5,097 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Counsell said Urias is a full go and is fully healthy. Should be able to make his debut with the Brewers in a few days. Seems like the SS job is his once he’s activated. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fielder1831 140 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Just got activated and I am excited. I know the shine has worn off but let's see what the kid can do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
einstein2u 494 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) [...] had a good week, may take a flier, does he play everyday? Edited August 17, 2020 by tonycpsu Removed Cool Story Quote Link to post Share on other sites
avatoot 102 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) I think he will. Yesterday both Arcia and Urias were in the same lineup. Urias moved to 3B. He has come out pretty hot since dealing with Covid and he is the Brewers future SS. [...] Edited August 17, 2020 by tonycpsu Removed Cool Story Quote Link to post Share on other sites
