    A 23-year-old, fifth-year outfielder for Florida Southern, Brown is a plus runner who handled center field while hit .387/.462/.793 this spring in a career-best offensive season that included 13 home runs. While that power production was impressive, scouts see more fringy raw power in the tank with Brown, and have questions about his ability to hit off-speed stuff. Some think he’ll have trouble with sliders at the next level, but he has a plus tool to hang his hat on with his running ability and might be able to stick in center at the pro level.
