Tyler Black

22-Year-Old Third Baseman3B
Milwaukee Brewers AA
2023 Fantasy Outlook
After playing just 26 games in 2021, Black took a beating in 2022, as he played only 64 games at High-A due to a fractured scapula and his Arizona Fall League season was cut short due to a broken thumb. Along the way, Black showcased an elite eye at the plate and above-average speed on the bases. The lefty hitter saw the most time at second base and center field last season, and his below-average arm limits his defensive versatility. He hit .280 with an OBP north of .400 and 17 steals on 24 attempts across 81 games at High-A and the AFL, but his line-drive swing produced just five home runs. Black turns 23 in July and will be making his Double-A debut this season, so he needs to either get good enough in the field to play every day as a Kolten Wong caliber hitter who sits against some lefties, or he needs to adjust his launch angle (48.7 GB%) to access 20-homer power.

Dazzling at Double-A

May 11, 2023
Black has gone 15-for-46 (.326) with three home runs, 12 RBI, 11 stolen bases and a 13:9 BB:K over his last 13 games with Double-A Biloxi.
ANALYSIS
Black hit just .212 over his first 11 games at the Double-A level, but he has put his power, on-base skills and speed on display all season, and his batting average is starting to follow suit. Given his hot start and the fact he was a first-round pick in 2021, he could find himself moving up prospect rankings when those are re-drawn.
