On Sunday evening, the Milwaukee Brewers announced that their top two prospects, Jesús Made and Luis Peña, were being promoted from Low-A to High-A, putting them one step closer to the big leagues. Given the fact that both Made and Peña are still just 18 years old, that they both have already progressed to High-A is a rather impressive feat. They are set to make their debuts for the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers tonight, when the Brewers' High-A affiliate takes on the Peoria Chiefs of the St. Louis Cardinals' organization.
Made and Peña's promotions break up what was one of the most exciting Low-A Carolina Mudcats teams in franchise history.
