Comment - Brett is a great kid.  Blue collar.  Works hard.  Big question heading into the 2012 season is whether Brett's offense can catch-up to his defense.  What I remember is that Brett played mostly third base in 2011.  During fall practice, I saw Brett playing at both third base and second base.  Good base running skills as he stole 90% of his base attempts in 2011.  There is a lot of competition at Third, Short, and Second base heading into winter workouts so it remains to be seen who will separate himself from the others in time for February 17's opener.  I know one thing about Brett:  he's the kind of player you need for a Conference Championship team.  I'm glad he is a Bearcat.


Go Cats!!
