[BA] 2006 Draft - Colton Willems
22 WAS Colton Willems
rhp John Carroll Catholic HS, Fort Pierce, Fla. FL
Willems surfaced as an elite arm last summer, garnering most valuable pitcher
honors at the Cape Cod Classic in July. His velocity spiked this spring, and
he came out pitching at 92 mph and bumping 97 in a relief outing. He is
compared to Matt Latos, another hard-throwing righthander from southeast
Florida, and Willems holds the edge entering the draft because of better
makeup and fastball command. Willems pitches off his fastball and spots it to
all four quadrants of the strike zone. He has thrown both a curve and a
slider, and both pitches are inconsistent. His slider will likely be his best
secondary option. His changeup isn't a put-away pitch, but he does have a
feel for it. While he's not muscular, he should be able to log innings as a
back-of-the-rotation starter. He could be drafted as high as the back of the
first round.
