Yovani Gallardo (1 Viewer)

Yovani Gallardo (RHP, Milwaukee Brewers): You would be hard pressed to find a pitching prospect better than Gallardo anywhere in the minors. Through seven starts with Triple-A Nashville, Gallardo is 4-1 with a 2.53 ERA. Gallardo has allowed just 26 hits in 42.2 innings and he has struck out 55 batters. Opposing batters are hitting just .174 against him. The 21 year old Gallardo is likely ready for the majors right now, but with the Brewers playing so well, there is no room for him at this time in Milwaukee. Despite the fact there is no room for him right now, it's likely that the former 2004 second round pick will make his major league debut at some point this season. If he keeps pitching like this, the Brewers are going to have a hard time keeping Gallardo in Triple-A much longer.

Per Rotowire.com

Also Ryan Braun is major league ready and he is tearing it up in AAA

Could the Brewers end up like the Braves where? All of these prospects.

There will be no rush on Gallardo or Braun. Particularly Braun who has a tender wrist right now.

Unless there is an injury, I wouldn't expect to see either one until late in the season. Who would you send down? Greg Gross? Counsell and Graffanino are too important in the clubhouse (along with Suppan) in terms of helping the young players through what will hopefully be a media storm this summer. Gwynn isn't going anywhere. It is possible the Brewers might still move an OF - but what do they need?

who is a better prospect - Gallardo or Adam Miller of the Indians?

He's been added.No Braun yet, though they've changed the RP with the same name to Ryan Z. Braun to avoid confusion.
