Winemaker’s Prospects Josh Knoth has Tommy John’s Surgery

Winemakers revealed tough news in Milwaukee fans today, Milwaukee Diary Racing’s Kurt Hogg revealed today the prospect of right-hand pitching Josh Knoth Has undergone surgery from Tommy John and will miss the entire 2025 season.

Knoth, 19, was selected by the brewer in the first round (total #33) at the 2023 high school draft and made his debut in the club’s Single-A branch last year. Despite some pedestrians with 4.48 ERA, Knoth scored an impressive 26.7% opponent in his 18-year-old season, but had a walking rate of 11.1%. According to Baseball America, North’s steady strikeout and youth are enough to make him the 16th-ranked prospect in the winemaker system. The right-handed has a solid fastball with the highest speed of 96 mph, with two plus secondary balls in the form of curve balls and sliders, although the BA wrote that his changes were a bit boring, while his controls were Here comes.

The right time was missed due to sore elbows at the end of last year, with only 21 starts and only 84 1/3 of the innings pitched, so the surgery isn’t necessarily a surprise. Even so, given Knoth’s transit potential, this is a disappointing development for winemakers. It would be shocking to see the youngster make his major debut with the club this year, but even reaching a double A by the end of the 2025 season will put him on the map for his debut with the brewer in 2026.

Now, the timeline for North’s arrival to professional seems nearly impossible, as recovery will essentially drive North’s development timeline throughout the year. Fortunately, Knoth is even the standard for high school prospects that were recently taken off, as he was only 17 on draft day and would not turn 20 until August. If Knoth manages to return from Tommy John’s surgery to 2026 unhindered and actively moves to the minor league ladder, he should still have the chance to get into the mammoth in his twenties Continue the competition.

Even if Knoth accounts for 2025, brewers’ pitching development looks strong. Robert Gasser Last year, he flashed something exciting in his club debut, and he is currently in the 60-day IL of Tommy John’s surgery, with the Southpaw character sometime later this year Returned at one time and affected the major league club. Perhaps more exciting, right-handed Jacob Mosrowski It’s a consensus top 100 prospect that hit Triple-A last year, and seems to debut with the winemakers at some point in 2025.
