Feliciano spent the 2017 season with the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, batting .265 with 16 RBIs over 29 games, and 2018 with the Arizona League Brewers and Carolina Mudcats, slashing .251/.320/.331 with four home runs and 36 RBIs in 104 games. He played in only 46 games during the 2018 season, hitting .213 with three home runs, and only two games in the Arizona Fall League due to a shoulder injury.[3] He started the 2019 campaign with Carolina.
Feliciano did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[4] On November 20, 2020, the Brewers added Feliciano to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[5]
On May 1, 2021, Feliciano was promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[6] He made his MLB debut that night as a pinch hitter, drawing a walk against Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Alex Vesia in the bottom of the 11th inning.
