LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2007 South Top Prospect Showcase
Max Willard is a 2008 IF/P with a 6'0'', 165 lb. frame from Garland, TX who attends Garland Christian Academy. Max has a thin athletic build, and would benefit from adding some size. He hits from a high hand set, and is a lift and replace style hitter. He is a little busy in the box, with lots of movement. He will get inside out at times, and ends up blocking balls out to right field. When he stays compact and short, he has the ability to spray the ball to all fields. Defensively he showed a good exchange and was accurate with his throws. He had a top velocity of 77 mph across the infield with a quick release. On the mound he pitches with a quick tempo and sound mechanics from an over the top arm slot. His arm works well, and is fairly loose. He has slight arm side run on his fastball and has solid arm action. He topped at 81 mph on his fastball. Max is a very good student.
