3/17/22

Uncommitted right-hander, standing at 6-foot-5, 225-pounds. Works down the mound with a tall/fall operation, arm plays from an over the top slot. His fastball enters the zone at a tough angle, topping out at 89 mph while sitting in the 86-87 mph range and missing barrels. Willey’s curveball hovered in the 75 mph range, playing off an 11/5 plane and coming from a similar window to his fastball.

RHP/OF Alex Willey (Normal West, 2022) is a 6-foot-5, 225-pound unsigned senior right-hander that is physically developed throughout his large frame. He ran his fastball up to 87 mph (T2378 rpm) while pairing it off a short 11/5 breaking ball with feel for the zone, 69-70 mph. His changeup sinks naturally to the bottom of the zone, thrown with some arm-speed at 73-75 mph. Willey also put up notable TrackMan numbers from the right-side of the plate. Willey recorded the furthest batted ball on the day at 378 feet to go along with a peak exit velocity of 98.9 mph and an average of 93.1 mph. The physical right-handed hitter has advanced hand strength, stays direct to the ball and creates leverage to the pull-side. Physical unsigned senior to follow moving forward.
