Brewers promote trio of top prospects to Nashville

A Nashville Sounds team that is thriving off young prospect performances got a boost Tuesday as the Brewers promoted Sal Frelick, Garret Mitchell and Joey Weimer to their Triple A affiliate.

Frelick, Milwaukee’s first round pick in 2021, slashed .317/.380/.464/.844 with nine steals in 52 games with AA Biloxi. In his first pro season in 2021, Frelick hit .329/.414/.466 with 12 steals in 35 games between Rookie League and High A ball. Frelick’s best attributes are his double-plus speed and his above average contact ability and plate discipline.
