2023 Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Phillies sent Brown to the Cubs at the trade deadline in exchange for a couple months of David Robertson. It was a strong return for Chicago, as Brown has impactful stuff that should play well in relief at the very least. The 6-foot-6 righty has a plus curveball, above-average slider and mid-90s fastball, but his command and control were shaky at times, especially early last season. Over his final 19 outings, split across High-A and Double-A, Brown logged a 2.99 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 141:25 K:BB in 93.1 innings. With his power arsenal, Brown seems destined to either be a high-strikeout, mediocre-WHIP starting pitcher or a late-inning weapon. He is now on the 40-man roster, so it would make sense for him to reach the majors this summer in some role if he is pitching well in the upper minors. Read Past Outlooks

Added to 40-man roster
Brown was added to the Cubs' 40-man roster Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
After being traded from Philadelphia to Chicago in August, Brown put up a 4.06 ERA and 1.48 WHIP through 31 innings in seven starts for Double-A Tennessee. The 23-year-old righty still has a few kinks in his game to work out, but with a K/9 approaching 13, it's not difficult to see why the Cubs made it a priority to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.
