View Draft Report
Willems most likely will get to Texas Christian, but the stout catcher has legitimate pro potential. Willems moves better than his 6-foot-1, 220-pound frame would seem to indicate. He has a plus arm behind the plate. He’s been clocked 92-93 mph off the mound and shows some feel for pitching, too, with a promising slider. He has present strength that also plays as a hitter. Willems hits from a very wide base with a short stroke. He has plus raw power. Willems will have to stay on top of his conditioning as he’s already filled out, but he has many of the attributes teams look for in a catcher.
