The Pending Hunter Brown Decision

Writing about prospects isn’t a specialty of mine, as I do not necessarily have the time or skillset to analyze and break down an organization’s farm system properly. I leave that heavy lifting for the more minor league-oriented staff members of this staff. That said, I enjoy keeping up with the progress of a few during a long season, especially those in the upper levels of the minors. Top prospect Hunter Brown, for example, has warranted plenty of attention — myself included — this season, considering how well his performance in Sugar Land has unfolded.

  • 61 innings pitched (18th)
  • 34 percent strikeout rate (1st)
  • 12.
