Over the course of the last month, the league environments throughout the Brewers farm system are shifting, yet to solidify as a few bats begin to surpass 150 plate appearances and top arms reach 40 innings. As Brewers fans focus on stat lines awaiting scouting reports on their favorite prospects, these contextual statistics should help to assess how each player’s age, opposing strength, and park context impacts their stat line. Minor league contexts vary so widely that simply presenting stats lines fails to capture whether a player is properly developing their tools or approach, or meeting their developmental assignment.
