Biographical Information

When he went to the University of Alabama-Birmingham in 2015, Brewer Hicklen was supposed to be a wide receiver on the team's football team. However, after sitting out his first season as a redshirt freshman, he found tremendous success as an outfielder on the baseball team during the 2016 spring season and never played football after that. The Kansas City Royals selected him in the 7th round of the 2017 amateur draft and he began his pro career that same year with the AZL Royals, earning a promotion to the Idaho Falls Chukars of the Pioneer League midway through that season. He finished his first year at .321/.409/.532 in 39 games and was considered a top prospect by the Royals from that point forward.
