2024 Fantasy Outlook
Lara reached High-A last season before his 19th birthday. He was aggressively assigned to Single-A to start the season after having only played in the Dominican Summer League in 2022. Power is the weakest part of Lara's game, but he has a chance to be a plus hitter, plus runner and quality defender in center field. The 5-foot-7 switch hitter gets high praise for his makeup and polish, which is why he was able to handle playing against much older competition in his stateside debut. Lara hit .285 at Single-A and .290 at High-A while being better than league average at both stops (116 wRC+ at Single-A, 107 wRC+ at High-A). His strikeout rate was below 20 percent at both stops and he stole 30 bases on 40 attempts in 87 games. He only hit two home runs, but his 110-mph max exit velocity suggests he could potentially get to double-digit homer power during his prime. Read Past Outlooks

Promoted to High-A

August 14, 2023
Lara was promoted to High-A Wisconsin on Monday, Ben Badler of Baseball America reports.
ANALYSIS
Lara -- as an 18 year old -- posted a .733 OPS and 39:46 BB:K over 318 PA with Single-A Carolina, and the Brewers are ready to give him a shot at the next level. If he can maintain that type of plate discipline he will have a shot to rise up prospect rankings in the coming years.
