Scouting Report

4/13/20
The 5-foot-11, 180-pound Williams cracked into the rankings this December, but put together an excellent showing at Preseason All-State Showcase this January leading to a big jump into the top 75.  Williams showcased a more polished swing with better incorporation of the lower half leading to a power surge at the plate, blasting balls gap to gap.  Slotted as a corner OF at the next level as he moves well (6.94 60 Time) and the arm continues to develop over time. Overall, rising corner OF bat with consistent hard contact rate and some upside.

5-foot-11, 180-pound  lean frame. At the plate, the right-handed hitter's 90 mph exit velocity showed his ability to drive the ball with power. Started in a strong stance and used a long stride. Had an uphill swing plane, as well as explosive bat speed and high finish. Found some barrels during his rounds. Gap to gap approach. In the outfield, he showed the ability to make throws to the bases at 78 mph; had smooth feet. Had a long arm action with a high ¾ slot.
