A fleet switch-hitting CF has potential. Last year, the Cards drafted CF Hill from a S. California juco in the 6th round. After the top rounds, the Cards take chances on rough talent. Some of these guys will take a long time to develop.

Williams played varsity baseball freshman year and then not again till the end of his Sr. year. Instead he played with his dads AAU travelling team. He is 6’4 190 switch hitting centerfielder and was consensus the fastest runner in the 09 draft. Andy Seiler said he is the sleeper pick for the Cardinals and could be very good if he puts it together. A scout said that he is more projectionable and has more tools then 09 first rounder Levon Washington. He’s always a switch hitter. He did well in JuCo but is VERY raw as a player. His dad said both him and his brother JD are very signable. Will be interesting to see how our system does at developing someone as raw and talented as Williams.

I hoped we would sign Bibona last summer. Better late than never.

Typo on 10: Middle Georgia College is not in Florida.

One question I have is he said his dad and GPa played Pro ball and his middle brother plays pro ball. Wonder who is is middle brother is? There are like hundreds of Garcia’s in pro ball.
