View Draft Report
Williams would beat just about every prospect in the country in a footrace. An 80 runner on the 20-to-80 scouting scale, Williams has run the 60-yard dash in 6.25 seconds, and even when he pulls up he clocks 4.25 seconds down the line out of the righthanded batter’s box. Williams is more raw athlete than baseball player, and the rest of his game is lacking. Williams has an above-average arm and plays center field because of his speed, but he doesn’t have the instincts for the position. He is a raw hitter with little bat speed and no power, and he doesn’t project to grow into any. Any team drafting Williams is taking him based on his speed, and hoping they can teach him to hit enough. He projects to go on the third day of the draft.
