WTM’S PIRATE PLAYER PROFILES |
The last pick for the Pirates in the 2014 draft, Brown is a second baseman out of the College of Southern Nevada, with good size for the position. He’s regarded as a solid all around player, though power isn’t part of his game yet. As a junior college freshman this year, he got on base a lot due to a high average and a tendency to get hit by pitches. When he did get on, he was a threat to steal, easily leading his team with 31 swipes in 36 attempts. He went undrafted out of high school despite starring for a strong program from Coronado, Nevada. His HS batting average actually dropped each season, from a high of .509 as a sophomore, down to .345 his senior year. He could be tough to sign coming from a junior college, where he is draft eligible again next year. |
