We continue our coverage of uncommitted players, spotlighting them to help maximize their exposure and assist them in the recruiting process. Today, we look at one of the top uncommitted players in class of 2022, Michael Williamson (Seton Catholic).

 

Michael Williamson 3B / SS / Seton Catholic Prep, AZ / 2022

6-foot-4 205 pounds, Michael Williamson is a corner infielder with a very projectable build and controlled actions. Williamson is a two sport athlete, currently wrapping up his senior football season playing wide receiver. Williamson has a simple set up at the plate, square to the pitcher and a base that is just outside of shoulder width, with the bat rested on his shoulder. The stride is short and direct to the pitcher, allowing him to stay grounded and keeps himself in a strong position to hit. The swing is flat, and produces a high rate of hard contact with true ball flight. Some length is created with the hands early, if that length is cut out, his bat path is efficient and he gets great extension through the baseball. Williamson's foot speed is about average for his size, but he's got graceful and soft actions at the two corner infield spots. A slight funnel action with the hands when fielding ground balls, and the arm has shown to be a tool of his. Arm strength plays well from the left side. Williamson is more than capable of playing a corner infield or outfield spot. Michael Williamson is a power potential corner guy with size and arm strength, an interesting follow through the 2022 spring season.
