Brown is almost certainly a reliever at the professional level, but the pure stuff is undeniable. He’s an athletic mover on the mound who throws from a high, three-quarters slot that allows him to get nice carry on his fastball that has been up to 96 mph and averaged 93 this spring. Brown’s calling card is his changeup that he throws more than 50% of the time and at its best is a 70-grade pitch. He generated a whiff rate of 70% with the changeup, which has tremendous dropping action and around 13 inches of horizontal movement as well. The 6-foot-2, 205-pound righthander has thrown a low-80s slider as well, but rarely uses the pitch. He has lightning-quick arm speed, which allows the changeup to play up so well, but he’ll need to continue to refine his command to maximize his effectiveness. This spring he posted a 4.76 ERA over 28.1 innings, with a 44.4% strikeout rate and a 19% walk rate.
