The Brewers have locked another one of their prospects in with a long-term contract. This time, it’s their number-five prospect, 21-year-old switch-hitting outfielder Luis Lara. He and the club have agreed to a seven-year contract, with three club options that could extend it through the 2035 season. Reports say the contract will guarantee about $31 million, and could pass $70 million with options and incentives. Lara is hitting .338 at Nashville this season, and has stolen 19 bases.
Lara joins Jackson Chourio and Cooper Pratt on the list of young players who have signed long-term with the Crew. Chourio is starring with the Brewers. Pratt is batting .248 while playing shortstop for the Sounds.
