The Rangers signed Adrian Brown to a minor league contract this year. Originally a 48th round draft pick by the Pirates in 1992, he's never caught on in the big leagues. Consistent with his career history, the Rangers are thinking of him as a potential baserunner rather than a bat. Along with Adam Hyzdu and Erubiel Durazo, he's battling to get a bench job. Two years ago, Baseball America said he was the best pick in any 48th round in the history of the draft, an accolade that should tell you how difficult it is to find guys like Mike Piazza.
