View Draft Report
Brown was the most reliable hitter on Louisville’s team this spring, outside of catcher Henry Davis who ranked as the top college bat in the class. Listed at 5-foot-10, 195 pounds, Brown has a sloppy approach at the plate and limited impact, but he’s a 65 or better runner with bat-to-ball skills. Brown never hit a home run in his collegiate career and doesn’t have a frame that suggests much more strength or power in the future, so a team is banking on an up-the-middle profile in the outfield, speed and contact ability that could turn into a spark plug at the top of a lineup as a best-case scenario.
