‘27 RHP Malachi Webb (DeKalb HS) was an intriguing pop-up who made a solid impression during the pitching portion of the event. Webb stands at 6-foot-4, 230 pounds and uses a taller balance point with a controlled delivery. He moves well down the slope for his size, and the arm works long and quick to a high 3/4 release. Webb sat 82-84 mph with his fastball, reaching back for a couple of 86s and topping out at 87.9 mph. The fastball showed carry through the zone and he demonstrated solid glove-side command. He also spun two breaking balls — a 72-73 mph curveball and a 73-74 mph slider that worked with more side-to-side action.
