Jackson Chourio is hitting his stride with Double-A Biloxi.

Chourio, the No. 2 prospect in baseball per MLB Pipeline, tied a career high with four hits on Tuesday -- the first four-hit game for any Shucker this season -- including two doubles and a critical three-run homer.

With his big outing in the 10-8 win over the Montgomery Biscuits, the Brewers center fielder is up to .263/.315/.436 on the season. That may not sound impressive on its own, but considering how he started the campaign, Chourio is beginning to fulfill his potential.

What makes Chourio’s season amazing is the fact that he doesn’t turn 20 for nine more months. Chourio is the youngest player in Double-A and is nearly five years younger than the average player in the Southern League. So it’s understandable that he took a while to find his footing.

The Venezuela native had flashes of success early on, with two separate seven-game hitting streaks and plenty of highlight plays. But an 0-for-18 stretch in late May torpedoed his hitting line to just .239/.287/.371. He was expanding the zone too much and swinging at pitches outside of his wheelhouse.

“The higher you get up, you have to command the strike zone better,” Shuckers hitting coach Chuckie Caufield said. “That comes with experience and more at-bats. The higher you get up, pitchers are able to exploit weaknesses better than they could at the lower levels; they’re sharper. 

“The approach is where a lot of that growth is happening, where he’s learning that you can’t just free-swing and you have to have a more consistent plan of attack when you get in the batter’s box. Those are the things he will continue to improve upon the more and more at-bats he gets at this level and even the next level.”

Caufield has worked with Chourio throughout the season to refine his approach and find the daily routines that will give him success. And that’s helped the top prospect bounce back quickly from that dry spell.

Since then, Chourio has been seemingly on fire. Including Tuesday’s outburst, he’s slashing .324/.378/.588 in his last 16 games, with seven stolen bases. He's tied for seventh in the Southern League with nine home runs and doing it all, again, despite being younger than anyone.

“He had a really good night,” Caufield said. “He swung the bat really well. It looked like he was getting some pretty good pitches to hit. He showed a little bit more discipline tonight. He stayed in the strike zone, and when he does that, he’s got the ability, he’s going to do that on the regular when he’s swinging at strikes.”

Caufield knows as well as anyone what Chourio is capable of. It's not just the bat and power that everyone raves about -- Chourio is a 70-grade runner and excellent defender in center field. Caufield says that he doesn’t have a single below-average tool, even the intangibles, and especially at his age.

“I really don’t see a ceiling,” Caufield said. “I’ve played around some pretty good ballplayers, some really good teammates, coached some pretty good ballplayers, but none at his age at this point in their career, and just his ability to really hit the baseball hard. The tools, they just stand out. I don’t know why anybody would cap a guy like this.”
