Many people wrote him off. Some even thought he'd never last through the end of April. But, Domonic Brown might be in the process of proving that he can be a regular in the major leagues.
After floundering since 2010, everything has clicked for number 9 offensively in May. It's so nice to see this affable young man finally maintain his health and realize the result of the earnest efforts that he's made in past years.
Last season Brown's swing was noticeably steady at Triple-A. While his defensive efforts may never be great, the Phillies' left fielder's glove work is adequate.
No sabermatrician can truly project how long his power surge may continue. But, this 25-year-old is starting to show that he can hit major league pitching over a consistent period of time. As long as he continues to make all needed adjustments, Brown will remain in the Phillies' lineup indefinitely.
