    Keeping tabs on Brewers prospects has been a key part of BrewerFan since its inception over 20 years ago, now we're asking all of you to come vote for your favorites!

    To that end, we held our first Top 25 poll in the summer of 2014 (it was actually a Top 20 poll - but quickly expanded to 25). Jimmy Nelson was our first top prospect. Our yearly poll allows fans of the organization to learn about the team’s prospects and promote the players who they will believe will be a part of Milwaukee's future.

    You don’t have to an expert in the Brewers minor leagues to participate; feel free to look at other voters’ lists, plus there are links to established prospect analysts - such Fangraphs and the MLB Pipeline.

    The poll is all in good fun so give the link below a click and join in with the Brewer Fanatic community.

    The deadline April 4 and you can update your list right up to the deadline. So head on over to the minor league forum to find out more, just click the card below.

    Or, if you prefer to comment in this article section, here are the rules:

    Rules
    1. Submit your Top 25 prospects (again, a list of 30 is best), in order, by end of day on April 4, 2022. Put the player's full name to avoid any confusion. I appreciate it you would number them. Also, please list your players from #1 to #30.

    2. You MUST submit 25 prospects. If there are only 10 or 15 or whatever, your list will not be included.

    3. You are encouraged to go beyond pick #25. 30 is best. This way if a player you vote for is released or traded, or you list someone twice, or whatever, we can just bump up your next player.

    4. Rankings are determined by total points. The top prospect gets 25 points, second prospect gets 24 points, etc.

    4. As noted above, if you submit your list and want to change something, just add the change to the thread via the edit function. I'll accept changes up to the deadline.

    5. Within a week or so after the deadline, we'll publish the new BF.net Community Top 25.

    Eligibility guidelines
    Rookie eligibility is determined by the same standards as MLB:

    “A player shall be considered a rookie unless, during a previous season or seasons, he has (a) exceeded 130 at-bats or 50 innings pitched in the Major Leagues; or (b) accumulated more than 45 days on the active roster of a Major League club or clubs during the period of 25-player limit (excluding time in the military service and time on the disabled list).”

    Note: I have seen some conflicting information on Aaron Ashby. Baseball-Reference lists him as having 46 days of experience - and marks him as having 'exceeded' rookie eligibility. However, every prospect list people have him as being rookie eligible. Thus, I am making him eligible for this poll.

    - Players graduated from Top 25 list: Jake Cousins

    - Other players who have exceeded rookie limits: Ángel Perdomo, Miguel Sánchez

    - Eligible players with ML experience: Justin Topa, Alec Bettinger, Corey Ray, Mario Feliciano, Aaron Ashby

    - Ineligible players: Ángel Perdomo, Miguel Sánchez, Jake Cousins, J.C. Mejia

    Best of luck to you all!
