Fischer, the Brewers’ first-round pick last year, didn’t play in Italy’s opener against Brazil, but he thrived today. Great Britain took a two-run lead in the first after Nate Eaton double and a Jazz Chisholm Jr. single before back-to-back homers from Fischer and J.J. D’Orazio tied it in the third. Fischer then gave Italy the lead with an RBI single in the fourth. Great Britain tried to make a game of it late, scoring twice in the eighth to make it 7-4 and loading the bases in the ninth, but Greg Weissert was able to pitch out of the jam and pick up the save.

Fischer gets $3.5 million, which is a decent amount under the $4.268 million allocated bonus amount for the 20th pick. The former Tennessee infielder has big-time power in his bat, but there are some questions as to whether he can play third base. If he does make the move across the diamond, the power and solid approach give him a chance to still be a fantasy option in the coming seasons.

Fischer has some of the best batted-ball data in the class, and he offers big-time power in his left-handed bat. The question is whether not he’s going to be able to stick at third base, as most believe that his lack of athleticism make him more likely to play first. The bat can play there, but there’s more risk in his profile at that not-so-hot corner. Milwaukee will give him every chance to stay on the left side of the infield, and if he can, there’s a lot to like.
