Statistically Speaking:
Anyone waiting for the youngster to hit a wall in his first taste of adult-softball may be disappointed. His overall numbers may not seem overwhelming at first, but he will turn it on as the season wears on. He’ll turn 17 in September; the kid second baseman is expected to hit around .550 and slugged .600 with a home run or two in his rookie season.
Upside Potential:
Middle-of-the-order run producer who is a constant extra base threat. Tremendous competitor and leader on the field. He's the guy you want at the plate when the game is on the line.
They Said It:
"Brent is a classic case of outstanding amateur scouting. We projected him to continue to improve. Did we think he'd come up and produce offensively? It's hard to ever project that. He's gotten stronger, he's gotten better with his work ethic. It's a testament to our scouting, our coaching and to his dedication to improving now that he's settled into the adult league." -- Rusty Kuntz – Director of Amateur Scouting
