Pitching dominates the Kansas City Royals prospect board with a few position players sprinkled in. It’s one area that new owner John Sherman and General Manager Dayton Moore will need to focus on in the 2020 MLB Draft, free agency, potential trades, and international free agency. However, one prospect who really stood out from the rest this season was outfielder, Brewer Hicklen.
The Royals’ 2017 seventh-round pick slashed 0.263/0.363/0.427 with 13 doubles, 7 triples, 14 home runs and 51 RBI’s in 125 games. The UAB product was terrific at the plate and in the field, recording 11 assists this season.
