Jackson Chourio, the 19 year old stud center field prospect for the Milwaukee Brewers, has reportedly agreed to terms on an 8 year major league deal that would guarantee him a minimum of $82 million. The deal reportedly includes a pair of club options as well as escalators that could make the total deal worth up to $142.5 million.
Chourio is the #2 player on the Baseball American top 100 prospect list, though he’s still not the highest rated player named Jackson, as he trails Baltimore Orioles prospect Jackson Holliday. Chourio was signed out of Venezuela by the Brewers in 2021, after after playing in the DSL that year, he made his stateside debut in 2022, splitting the year between low-A, high A and AA.
