In 1993, the Cubs had the 10th pick in the June amateur draft. With that pick, they chose an Outfielder from the University of Texas. Brooks Kieschnick was a high prospect in the Cubs organization. In 1996, he got his first shot at the big leagues with 29 AB's, mostly in a pinch hitting role, and hit .345. In 1997, Brooks was given 90 AB's, this time including some starts in Left Field. In that stint, he hit a mediocre .200 and was never again seen in a Cub uniform. He went on to be left unprotected in the expansion draft and was chosen by Tampa Bay. From there, he would go on to Cincinnati & Colorado via Free Agency. Both of these stops proved disappointing for Brooks and the organization. Finally, Brooks was given his break when he signed with the division rival, Milwaukee Brewers. Since then, he has gone on to not only pinch hit, but also pitch regularly out of the Brewer's bullpen. Recently, I caught up with Brooks to ask him a few questions. Enjoy!!!
