2024 Fantasy Outlook
Chourio became the fourth teenager to go 20-40 in the past 60 seasons, with Ronald Acuna being the most recent to accomplish the feat in 2017. He was also the first teenager to go 20-20 solely in the upper levels of the minors since Delmon Young in 2005. Chourio's surface stats weren't outstanding early in the year, in part due to the pre-tacked balls the Southern League used in the first half of the season. However, with standard balls back in play, Chourio slashed .324/.379/.538 with 11 home runs, 21 steals and a 13.4 percent strikeout rate in his final 57 games across Double-A and Triple-A, and he doesn't turn 20 until March. He has all the makings of a future first-round pick in fantasy, and he also happens to be an excellent defensive center fielder. The Brewers already have three very capable young defensive center fielders in Sal Frelick, Garrett Mitchell and Joey Wiemer, but they inked Chourio to a record-setting $80 million contract this offseason, so there are no financial incentives for the team to start him in the minors.

RANKSFrom Preseason

April 15, 2024
Chourio went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer, two runs scored, a stolen base and a walk in Monday's loss to San Diego.
ANALYSIS
Chourio belted a two-run shot in the second inning. It was his third long ball of the year and first since April 6. The highly-touted rookie knocked 22 homers with 44 steals in the minors last year and he displayed that impressive power-speed combo Monday. Chourio is now slashing .259/.305/.444 through 59 plate appearances.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
In talks for long-term contract
OFMilwaukee Brewers
November 28, 2023
The Brewers are deep in discussions on a long-term deal with Chourio, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
These negotiations have been taking place for the last few months, per Rosenthal, and the contract would reportedly be longer and worth more guaranteed money than the six-year, $50 million pact Luis Robert signed with the White Sox in January of 2020. That still stands as the richest internal extension any team has ever handed out to a prospect with zero major-league experience. Chourio, a five-tool 19-year-old outfielder, would likely be part of the Opening Day roster in Milwaukee if he winds up signing on the dotted line because there'd no longer be service time concerns. He's probably close to MLB-readiness anyway, having tallied 22 homers, 91 RBI, 44 steals and 88 runs over 128 games between Double-A Biloxi and Triple-A Nashville in 2023.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Chourio made some noise on the backfields last spring around his 18th birthday, but nobody could have seen his historic 2022 season coming. A seven-figure international signee out of Venezuela in 2021, Chourio skipped over complex ball and was assigned directly to Single-A - a very aggressive assignment. He was unfazed, slashing .324/.373/.600, good for a 160 wRC+, with 12 home runs and 10 steals in 62 games before getting a bump to High-A. The only 18-year-olds who have done similar damage at that level are guys like Juan Soto and Ronald Acuna. Chourio's power (.236 ISO) was steady after the promotion, but his BABIP fell from .423 to .267, which impacted his slash line (.252/.317/.488). The Brewers rewarded Chourio with a brief taste of Double-A to close the year. Chourio's 35.2 Hard% is up there with Double-A and Triple-A sluggers who are 4-to-6 years older than him, and he is currently a plus runner. His 27.2 K% and 7.4 BB% aren't figures typically associated with top-10 prospects, but there aren't other examples of players his age logging a .947 OPS across three full-season levels, so it's hard to ding the plate skills too much at this stage. He could follow the Corbin Carroll/Gunnar Henderson path and debut in September if he excels in his age-19 season.
