Dee Brown was a 1st round selection of the Royals in the 1996 June Amateur Draft and spent nine seasons in the Kansas City organization (1998-2004 in KC). An outfielder with big time power, Brown turned down a football scholarship to Maryland in order to sign with the Royals, and appeared in 263 KC games before finishing up his MLB career with the Athletics. Dee recently joined Dave O to talk about just HOW CLOSE he was to bypassing the Royals offer for Maryland, how a hamstring pull in June of 2001 was the beginning of the end for his career, an EXTREMELY blunt self-assessment and lots more! A truly refreshing dose of honesty. (Photo Courtesy Kansas City Royals)
