    Willis is described by scouts as a poor man's C.C. Sabathia--the strapping lefthander drafted in the first round by the Indians in 1998. At 6-foot-2 and 175 pounds, Willis isn't as imposing as Sabathia, but he has excellent athletic ability, arm strength and makeup. He has performed exceptionally this spring in a two-way role, going 10-1, 0.70 with 111 strikeouts and 20 walks in 70 innings as a pitcher and hitting .600-8-31 as a first baseman.
