Brown is an upside backstop hailing from Evansville that we are excited about. An athletic, projectable, 6-foot-3, 165 pound multi-sport athlete with wiry strength - Brown showed improvements with the bat, reaching a peak exit velocity of 92.1 mph with 80% of his batted balls coming off the sweet spot. A high sweet spot percentage speaks to the barrel accuracy, and his overall impact will easily improve as he adds more mass to his ultra-projectable frame. Brown works behind the baseball with a controlled lower half and the swing works uphill. The path + frame + accuracy makes it easy to project him as a future-power bat. Brown's best tool at the moment is his arm strength, showing the best arm from the crouch of any '27 at the event (78 mph) and his pop times ranged from 2.03 - 2.08.
