Jordan Beck Called Up By Rockies | BA Prospect Profiles

According to a report from Jon Morosi, the Brewers are set to call prospect Tyler Black to the big leagues. Black currently ranks No. 73 on the Top 100 and earns high marks for his hittability and speed, though his ultimate defensive home is questionable and his power might only be fringe-average once he reaches his peak. The 23-year-old lefty swinger has five home runs this season at Triple-A Nashville.
