Slater De Brun - Prospect Profile

Tyler Jennings - Just Baseball - March 24th: "There’s very little to hate at the plate, as de Brun has posted incredibly healthy contact rates and rarely expands the zone, getting on base frequently where he can be a basepath menace. His bat speed is top-notch, though the swing plane is more suited for line drives to the gaps than fly balls over the fence."

Carlos Collazo - Baseball America - March 10th: "Extremely young for the class, I think he’s got a chance for above-average hitting ability and plus defense in center as a near double-plus runner. Just one of the players you find yourself really liking every time you see him play."

Keith Law - The Athletic - March 4th: "De Brun is small, listed at 5-9, but he has a great swing, makes pretty hard contact, and can definitely stick in center field due to his plus speed. He’ll get compared quite a bit to Corbin Carroll based on size and geography, and to last year’s No. 28 pick Slade Caldwell based on size; I think he slots in between the two."

Kiley McDaniel - ESPN - February 21st: "De Brun shows shades of Slade Caldwell from last year's draft (29th overall to Arizona). Some have mentioned Corbin Carroll as a comp, but you have to squint to see that."
