The Cubs recently released their list of 21 non-roster invitees for Spring Training this year. While there are many intriguing prospects included on this list, one veteran hopes to reclaim his once-dominant nature on the mound, and that is Rex Brothers.
Brothers, a compensatory first-round selection by the Rockies in the 2009 first-year player draft, utilized a wicked three-pitch mix to quickly work his way through the pipeline, reaching the Show in 2011. He was able to do something many pitchers before and after, could not do, and that was dominate in the thin air of Coors Field.
