Scouts aren't high on Williams Jr., the son of the ex-pro of the same name, in spite of intriguing tools. His brother J.D. is a better prospect in Florida's high school class. Reggie Jr. is a plus runner who runs 6.3- and 6.4-second 60s, but he doesn't carry that speed over to games due to a lack of instincts. While he made strides offensively, he still doesn't have a polished approach or a good idea at the plate. He has bat speed yet lacks the aptitude to use it, flailing at breaking stuff.
