Jordan Williams

Jordan is medium framed, L/L, LHP/corner OF with future likely lying on the mound as a LHP. Square frame with some present strength and room to add more. Did showcase as a position player as well. Fringy runner (7.4 60) will likely limit to corner OF. Moved well in the OF portion and shows ability to catch the ball and make accurate throws to the bases. Future fringy type arm but accurate. Offensively tends to dive to the ball from an open start. Does show some quick hands and strength in swing but a very quick path in & out of zone. Very quick front hip and really cheats to pull but does tease some bat speed thru zone with chance for some pull side power. Profiles better as a LHP. Though he is slightly undersized, Jordan does a nice job of consistently pounding the strike zone and hides the ball well. Works from a semi windup with a compact arm stroke that seems to come out from behind his ear late from a hitters perspective. Arm works cleanly with no glaring faults. Work needed to clean up delivery, particularly direction and lower half usage but does show good body control and ability to make adjustments/corrections on the fly. Fairly raw on the mound but shows some aptitude for pitching. Fills up the zone with FB (70-75) with chance for some more velo to come with continued development. Tweaks to delivery should allow him to be able to get to both sides of plate and FB shows some occasional late arm side tailing action. Has feel to spin the ball. True ¾ CB (62-64), bit of a hump to it but shows shape and depth along with ability to land it for strikes. Never going to overpower anyone but a chance to be a strike throwing, finesse type pitcher who can keep hitters off balance and defense engaged. Potential late bloomer type LHP for a small school to keep an eye on.
