Current Ranking in Joe Doyle’s FSS Plus Top 600: 116
Joe Doyle on Brown:
Projection and strike-throwing ability here really stand out. Brown really came on strong late in the summer of 2022, impressing for Team USA. The slider is the bread and butter here with depth and sweeping action, a real bat-missing weapon against left-handed hitters. Brown hasn’t yet seen a velocity bump. He’ll usually sit 89-91 over extended outings, touching 93 at his best. He projects a crafty southpaw who commands the baseball well and has the ability to manipulate shape. If scouts see a velo pop in the near future, he could sneak into the early parts of day two.
