Brewers officially bring Ebel Bros. together, sign top pick Trey

MILWAUKEE -- This was one week Trey Ebel won’t ever forget.

In the span of seven days, the Corona (CA) High School shortstop was selected 25th overall in the first round of the MLB Draft by the Brewers -- the same organization that picked his older brother, Brady, in the supplemental first round a year ago. Then the brothers met in Philadelphia for All-Star Game festivities with their dad, Dodgers third-base coach Dino Ebel.

Then Trey traveled to Milwaukee to undergo a physical exam and sign his first professional contract, which he inked Friday prior to taking the field for batting practice before the Brewers opened the second half against the Marlins at American Family Field.

Seven days.

Three time zones.

One life-changing week.

Ebel, 17, batted .417/.496/.796 with 10 doubles, two triples, nine home runs, 47 RBIs and 37 runs scored in 31 games as a senior at Corona in 2026 while striking out only six times. He is a six-foot, 180-pound right-handed hitter.

The Brewers announced he’d signed but, per club policy, did not release information about Ebel’s signing bonus. MLB.com's Jim Callis reported that Ebel signed for $2.8 million, and the 25th overall pick had an assigned value of $3.7 million.

News of his agreement with the Brewers came a day after the club announced its first batch of signings on Thursday, headlined by third-round pick Kyle Jones, an outfielder from the University of Florida. That initial batch included one high school pick, eighth-rounder Kellan Tom, a first baseman from Corona del Sol High School in Tempe, Ariz.

Other players in that first crop of signings included Brown University right-hander Ryan Oshinskie (sixth round), Texas State right-hander Chase Mora (ninth round) and St. Joseph’s University right-hander Andrew Gaines (10th round).

The Brewers have also signed East Carter County (MO) High School right-hander Brady Smith (18th round) for $150,000, per Callis.
