The triple-A Buffalo Bisons weren’t written into the script of Domonic Brown’s career.
A 20th round selection of the Philadelphia Phillies in 2006, Brown quickly surprised as a blue-chip, can’t-miss prospect with rare physical gifts. Midway through the 2010 season Brown, then playing for triple-A Lehigh Valley, was ranked by Baseball America as the number one prospect in all of baseball. Second on that list? Mike Trout.
Faced with an unexpected free agency this past offseason for the first time in his career, the 28-year-old has found a new baseball home with the Blue Jays.
