Brewers promote shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt to major leagues

The Milwaukee Brewers have promoted shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt to the major leagues ahead of their game against the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday night. Pratt, who signed an 8-year, $50 million extension in April, was performing well with the Nashville Sounds, hitting.241 with six home runs and 17 stolen bases. His promotion follows a recent increase in performance during the season. The Brewers have yet to announce a corresponding roster move to make space for Pratt, but speculation includes a potential trade involving Luis Rengifo or placing him on the injured list after he experienced minor injuries during a recent game.
