Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Brewer Hicklen went 2-for-2 with two walks and two stolen bases on Sunday for Triple-A Nashville. The former seventh-round draft pick is having a great season for the Sounds, posting a strong .272-19-62-59-36 line in 86 games. In the past, the strikeout rate has been too high at 30.1% from 2017-2023, but Hicklen has brought it down to a more palatable 27.1% this season. At 28 years old, he's not a youngster anymore, but with just a four-game MLB cameo back in 2022, it seems he's due for another shot in the big leagues. With his power-speed combo, don't be surprised if he sees some time with the Brewers down the stretch.
