The Milwaukee Brewers have finally done it. They have addressed the corner infield positions early on in the MLB Draft.

After neglecting third base and first base for a number of years early in the draft, the Brewers not only got one of the best at that position group, they got a local player as well.

With the 86th overall pick in the MLB Draft, the Milwaukee Brewers selected Alex Binelas, 3B, Louisville.

Binelas grew up in Oak Creek, WI, so he’s a local product, a Brewers fan, and now he can play for his hometown team.
