Game Performance

Notes

Comments

3/20/25
+ Gilliam has taken big strides on the bump this winter & should see himself elevate after a strong performance at this event. The undersized-but-twitchy & athletic, 5-foot-8, 165 pounder used an up-tempo, stock, well-seqeunced delivery that produced an 88-89 fastball that came out at 90 on his best bullet. The fastball came out with some life and his 75-77 slider played with it. The slider is a future wipeout spinning now in the 26-2700 range and playing with sharp sweep. There was feel for a low-80s change, as well, with above average control shown. Gilliam is a high follow for our staff for CG this spring, and into the summer on the circuit, showing one of the better fastball/spin combos we've seen to this point in the class.

Gilliam showed off one of the most well-rounded toolsets in the class at the All-State event. An undersized, twitchy athlete that stands at 5-foot-8, 155 pounds - Gilliam turned in the second-best run time of any '27 at the All-State, with a 6.78 60. To go along with an advaned run tool, Gilliam also reached 90 mph from the outfield, an event-best for 2027 grads. The combination of foot speed and arm strength is advanced, and should allow him to be an asset on the defensive side of the ball. In the box, the right-handed hitter makes an athletic forward move before turning the barrel on an ideal bat path. There is rotational strength within the swing, allowing for above average impact, with his exit velocity peaking at 92.6 mph.
