LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2007 National Showcase
Corey Williams is a 2008 LHP with a 6'1'', 180 lb. frame from Huntsville, AL who attends Madison Academy. He has a well proportioned athletic build with good strength and the promise of more to come. Williams throws from a high energy delivery with a short stride and tall release point. His arm is quick and he gets very good extension out in front at release. Williams fastball is consistently in the upper 80's and touched 91 mph. It's a live fastball that will ride up in the zone over hitter's hands but sink and run down low. Williams 77 mph slider can be nasty at times with late, sharp break and he had lots of swing and misses on this pitch. His change up was consistently down in the strike zone with good arm speed. Williams is an athletic pitcher, held runners well and fielded his position. His overall stuff has come on nicely over the past year and there could still be more there. He has the arm strength and stuff to be a top level southpaw. Williams is a good student.
