View Draft Report
Brown is one of most projectable players in the draft class, but he has a long way to go. One of the draft’s youngest players at 17 years old, Brown has a basketball background and stands an appealing 6-foot-4 with long levers. He is still very thin and not yet completely coordinated. Brown launches balls in batting practice and shows average power potential, but he’s still very raw as a hitter and has struggled the few times he’s faced good pitching. He’s a plus runner with above-average arm strength and the athleticism to remain in the infield. Brown needs a few years to grow into his body, but he has upside it if all clicks. He is committed to Fresno State but is considered signable.
