    Webb stood out at the 2016 World Wood Bat Championships and continued with a solid senior year, posting a 1.165 OPS at the plate and a 1.42 ERA as his high school's closer. Webb's best tool is his arm. Short but strong at 5-foot-10, 195 pounds, Webb consistently hits 92 mph off the mound in relief with a potential above-average slider in the low-80s. That arm strength has translated to plus from both behind the plate and across the diamond at third base. Webb has power but is raw as a hitter. There is no consensus where he projects best among evaluators, although his size and tool set usually ends up at catcher, where Webb would have to improve his hands. Webb is committed to UC Riverside, where he is ticketed for a dual third base/reliever role.
