Future Games Spotlight - 3B Cade Brown
July 14, 2022
Returning for his second stint at the PBR Future Games is 3B Cade Brown (Parkview; Team Elite). Brown has represented Team Georgia three times, once at the Junior Future Games and now for a second time at the Future Games. The right-handed hitter has some of the top raw power in the class, recording an event leading 100 mph exit velocity at the Underclass Games last month. Even more impressive is the athletic development of Brown. Now a 6.8 runner, he is quicker around the bases and more nimble at the hot corner.

Scouting Report
NPI
Standing 5-foot-11 160 pounds, Brown will completely fill out the frame in the near future. He has advanced strength and handles the bat well with the quickness at the plate to throw the bat head with some force. He drives from the back hip well really getting in his lower half and maximizing the trunk turn. When he’s on time he gets the barrel to any pitch on the plate and has above average pop that suggests the backspun liners will turn into gappers soon.
