Luis Lara reached High-A last season before his 19th birthday. He was aggressively assigned to Single-A to start the season after having only played in the Dominican Summer League in 2022. Power is the weakest part of Lara's game, but he has a chance to be a plus hitter, plus runner and quality defender in center field. The 5-foot-7 switch hitter gets high praise for his makeup and polish, which is why he was able to handle playing against much older competition in his stateside debut. Lara hit .285 at Single-A and .290 at High-A while being better than league average at both stops (116 wRC+ at Single-A, 107 wRC+ at High-A). His strikeout rate was below 20 percent at both stops and he stole 30 bases on 40 attempts in 87 games. He only hit two home runs, but his 110-mph max exit velocity suggests he could potentially get to double-digit homer power during his prime.

  • Brewers' Luis Lara: Promoted to High-A

    Lara was promoted to High-A Wisconsin on Monday, Ben Badler of Baseball America reports. Lara -- as an 18 year old -- posted a .733 OPS and 39:46 BB:K over 318 PA with Single-A Carolina, and the Brewers are ready to give him a shot at the next level. If he can maintain that type of plate discipline he will have a shot to rise up prospect rankings in the coming years.

  • Brewers' Luis Lara: Reaching base regularly

    Lara went 16-for-38 (.421) with three doubles, three RBI, four stolen bases and a 11:4 BB:K over his last 10 games with Single-A Carolina. Lara has shined since making his first appearance with Carolina in early May, and through 154 plate appearances he owns a .323 batting average and .448 OBP -- marks that would both rank second in the Carolina League if he qualified. That's not too shabby for a prospect who will not turn 19 years old until November.
