Get to know me: Winter or summer, UM draft pick Jordan Brewer must sleep with the fan on

This spring and summer, The Detroit News again will be introducing you to some of the lesser-known sports standouts in the area, including from the United Shore Professional Baseball League, Detroit City FC and Detroit Sun FC, among others. Consider this sort of like speed dating, without the dating.

A special appearance this week for “15 Things You Don’t Know About Me” — Jordan Brewer, a junior outfielder for the Michigan baseball team, which won its regional Monday night and will play UCLA in this week's Super Regional.

Brewer, this season's Big Ten player of the year, was drafted in the third round Tuesday by the Houston Astros. He was one of three Michigan players taken in the first three rounds of the MLB Draft.
