Wisconsin Timber Rattler outfielder Joey Wiemer was named as a First-Team outfielder for 2021 All-Prospect team. Read Sam Dykstra's article at MLB Pipeline on the 2021 All-Prospect at this link to see some of the other top prospects to make both the First and Second Teams.
Here is Dykstra's entry on Wiemer:
OF: Joey Wiemer (**MIL No. 23**)
A/A+: .295/.403/.556, 109 G, 27 HR, 77 RBI, 86 R, 63 BB, 30 SB
The 2020 fourth-rounder brought an all-out swing, good speed and 70-grade arm to the Minors for the first time this summer. Wiemer joined Volpe and Bobby Witt Jr. in the exclusive 25-25 club, and his ability to slug the ball only got better as the season went on. He hit .336/.428/.719 with 14 homers in only 34 games at High-A Wisconsin following a mid-August promotion. Wiemer’s vicious swing could catch up to him at the upper levels, but it certainly worked wonders for him in 2021.
Joey Wiemer continues to lay waste to the High-A Central League. He turned in a four-hit performance last night for @timberrattlers, which included his 22nd 🚀 of the season.
