View Draft Report
As a 6-foot-6, 185-pounder, righthander Aaron Brown was one of the more projectable high school arms in the state three years ago. But after three years at Houston, he hasn't added velocity despite putting on 15 pounds. Brown has touched 95 mph in the past, but he spent much of 2007 working with an 88-91 mph fastball and a slurvy breaking ball. He had one of his best outings of the year against East Carolina in early May, then finished the season by giving up 13 runs in 12 innings over his final three starts.
